Oatmeal mixed with milk or a protein shake (or a protein shake done with milk instead of water, the best option) is what I'd always eat for breakfast when I used to eat breakfast (doing intermittent fasting now). The protein of oats actually has quite a high BV and I think the specific mix of dairy protein together give you some of the highest BVs you can get.
I'm on the go for breakfast often, so I usually grab a special K protein bar and a piece of fruit. If I have time for a sit down, I go with a hard boiled egg. I just like them cause you can make a few at a time and eat them through the week.
I sometimes have one or two turkey sausages depending on thier size. They are lower in fat then the pork sausages and the only ingredients are turkey, salt and pepper. My grocery store makes them right in the store. A large one is 100 grams and I only eat one of those at a time or I have 2 of the smaller link-type sausages.
I love making my own sausage. I recommend freezing them raw then cooking before you eat - they taste so much better that way, and they're about 72 calories each (using 90% lean turkey meat):
I highly, highly recommend those sausages, but they do have maple syrup (2T) in the entire recipe (24 patties) which may be okay depending on your plan

My plan is low-ish carb foods and calorie counting so they will fit right in even with the maple syrup. Thanks again.
Edited to add: I will probably use only a third of the salt that is in the recipe however.

I agree with WastedThermos. I love, love, love the morningstar faux sausage products. They are quick and easy. I also like to have egg whites with bell pepper and mushrooms mixed in. A piece of morningstar on the side. I totally feel content with my breakfast in the mornings.
