Can you share some breakfast ideas? Obviously I'm avoiding junk cereals, but I haven't even wanted to eat healthy cereals lately. Actually, breakfast foods haven't been very appealing at all, so I've eaten soup a couple days this week. Any suggestions to get me out of a breakfast rut???
I usually eat 3 egg whites and a piece of bacon or sausage. I'm on weight watchers and it usually comes to about 2-4 points depending on the type of meat I have. Sometimes I skip the meat all together and have 3 egg whites which is only 1 point. Hope this helps a little
I like cottage cheese, or sugar free yogurt and fruit, or sugar free "maple and brown sugar" instant oatmeal....Wal-mart sells their own store brand, it is good.
* quick oats (not instant) made w/ff milk, some combo of toppings (fresh or frozen fruit, sometimes applesauce, walnuts, cinnamon)
* 2 Kashi GoLean waffles, toasted with pb and sliced banana
*wg English muffin or wg toast w/pb (or cashew butter) and sliced apple
* a small can of fruit (in juice) mixed with ff yogurt or ff cottage cheese
* pancakes from an organic whole grain mix (like Arrowhead Mills or Hodgson Mills buckwheat)
I should add that I rarely drink milk during the day, so I heat a cup at night for a "soothing nightime routine". If I have cold cereal at bkfst, I have milk with it. I'm still skeptical about this 1000 mg. recommendation for daily calcium.
I love the mini whole wheat bagels with Philadelphia Cream Cheese Jammers spread on them.. very filling and delicious! Sometimes I'll eat a peanut butter sandwich with a little banana sliced on it.
I am actually a huge fan of breakfast!
Egg whites are my best friend, but lately i have been eating, well shall I say "drinking my breakfast's... a soy protein shake with frozen strawberries and pineapple in it.. its suprisingly filling!
