What do you usually have for breakfast?

[Amanda76]

I used to cook breakfast every morning but I've gotten lazy...I just throw pasteurized egg whites, oats, frozen banana, some kinda nut butter and cayenne pepper (no idea why I love spicy so much) into a blender and drink my vitamins with it. Sometimes I'll throw berries or spinach or whatever in...just depends on what I have in the house.

[Amanda76]

Overnight oats! 1/2c oats, 1 scoop whey, 1//2c unsweetened vanilla almond milk all in a sorta-empty jar of PB!! OMNOMNOM.

If not, I'll have chocolate fiber one cereal and replace the milk with a vanilla protein shake. OMG, or VANILLA CHEX with corfetti cake batter whey and almond milk! Now I'm hungry..great.

I've been wanting to play around with overnight oat recipes...I love things like meusli. Do the oats keep a firm texture when you soak them instead of cook them? Guess I could take the time to find out for myself...LOL

[demike]

Usually one of the following: eggs, PB and banana, or some greek yogurt and PB.

Just tried these tasty chicken sausages though so I think eggs and chicken sausage will be my new breakfast for a little while.

[snowbunny78]

So many tasty sounding breakfasts on here! For me, I struggle to eat in the morning so I always have the same thing; chocolate protein shake with banana and PB blitzed through. You'd have thought it would get boring every day, but it never does. It's delish!

[JillUB]

I am totally hooked on oatmeal bakes right now:

40g gluten free oats
1 scoop cinnamon roll whey protein
1/2 cup eggwhites
1/4 cup water
Cinnamon, stevia to taste, sometimes some raisins or goji berries

Mix it in a small oven-safe dish and bake at 350 F for 25 minutes.
Top with peanut butter, coconut milk and a bit of sugar free syrup.

Otherwise I might have a couple eggs with hummus, sauerkraut and whatever veggies I have on hand.

[Snicccka]

Cup of oatmeal with full cream milk and a banana.. and a glass of milk

Or, 3 eggs and 4 slices of bread.. and a glass of milk

Goal is to gain weight (cleanly) to get more size on my legs/butt.. Can't say I really know what I'm doing but ahhh welllll

[AnnalisaLynn]

At home and too lazy to make eggs so...greek yogurt with chopped dried figs. Simple and delish!

[WhittenMuscle]

I got sick of 7eggwhites and 2 whole. So I mix half te egg whites w a scoop of cinnamon bun protein powder one she egg and mix up and cook it like a pancake. Put some pb on top. Mmmm mmmm

[KDelRio]

4 egg whites, 2 slices of toast or English muffin with spreadable honey OR protein shake with veggie muffin

Wish I could say I have an awesome homemade recipe haha but actually they're frozen by a brand called garden lites and they're so very tasty especially the zucchini chocolate that one I have for dessert

Oh I know that brand! I have their vegetable soufflé when my veggie intake is low and I feel to burn all of the broccoli in the world. I will look out for the muffins! Zucchini chocolate???? Sounds amazing!

[CardioBunny21]

Same thing every single day:
-3 eggs on top of 2 servings hashed browns cooked in olive oil, I mix those all together in a bowl, delicious!
-3 links of turkey sausage
-protein bar

Have been doing this for I can't even remember how long, a really really long time though.

That sound really good! Have you tried turkey bacon with you're meals ?

[VeeSez]

I am so trying some of these recipes. Yum!

[AsheTuff]

Stir fry with 2 eggs. Only keeps my full about 2 hours. I usually have yogurt and nuts as morning snack to hold me off until lunchtime

[nicholina]

Ive been eating green spinach protein pancakes a lot lately. With butter.

[fihe]

Things I enjoy eating for breakfast:

• 2 sunny-side up or poached eggs
• 0.5 cup oatmeal with 2 egg whites and 0.25 cup blueberries
• light multigrain English muffin with 2% plain or fruit-flavored Greek yogurt
• omelette of 2 egg whites, 0.25 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, and chopped tomato, onion, and pepper
• 1 tbsp. peanut butter on a rice cake
• 0.5 cup coffee with 0.5 cup unsweetened soy milk
• 1 cup tea

I make sure to have a good balance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates.

Funny you say that, since none of the examples you posted are "balanced" in all three macro nutrients. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Why did you say that? in fact...A cup of tea has no fat, protein or carbs.

Ah, I forgot to say that I'll have those foods in combinations with a pretty good balance (i.e. two eggs, English muffin, Greek yogurt). The drinks I included just because...I like to drink something with my food.

Depends on the day. During the week it'll be either oats with banana, almonds and a shake, or Greek yogurt with fruit and a slice of toast.
On weekends it's normally eggs and a bagel or pitta.

Lol at post and username content

[apier]

eggs and avocado

[lSOFit]

Weekdays- lemon water, banana with peanut butter, and protein shake

Weekends- omelet with veggies and bacon...yummy

[Quest4Gains]

Today I had salmon with poached egg on whole meal bread, washed down with my greens complex

Is that lemon water literally just lemon in water lol?

[Kimba707]

I also start the day with a pint of warm lemon water! Feels good to have something cleansing first thing.

Never been a morning or a breakfast person really. Tried oats for a while but just don't have the time so for the past couple of years I make smoothies to drink while getting ready for work. Usually a soy or nut milk base (avoid dairy when possible), throw in a small amount of fruit for sweetness (small banana or a few berries), then load in the veg... spinach, kale, carrots, cucumbers, celery, lettuce, spring greens, whatever I've got really. Add some protein powder or a couple tablespoons of a superfood (spirulina, flax, chia, hemp seed, maca, wheatgrass, cacao nibs, etc...), whizz it all up and its good to go! I get variety by switching up the flavours and for special treat days I add peanut butter or coconut, yum! On weekends I might do eggs, turkey bacon or oats as I generally have more time for meal prep than during the week!

[IH8RICE]

I usually have a granola bar, oatmeal with cinnamon, or scrambled eggs.

6oz ribeye,scrambled egg, grits, multi and OJ

[Jecrabbit]

Always a huge jug of lemon & cranberry water.

Whatever fruit I'm in the mood for (enough to fill me up). I'll either have it raw & on its own which is really refreshing or I'll make more of it with some recipes, like my banana & oat pancakes or avocado toast ^.^

Try to throw a good source of fibre in too.

Or lots of mornings I will make a smoothie with fruits, veggies etc.

[cjobson]

Lately have been on an oatmeal kick, the instant kind which I know gets bad rep but I'm picky about the brand (only get Quaker Weight Control or Kashi, both with lots of protein and fiber and low, if any, sugar content).
Usually its a package of instant and greek yogurt, berries, sometimes mix the oatmeal with a tbsp of PB (delish), lots of cinnamon, and coffee with milk. I work out in the mornings about 1-2 hrs after breakfast so that's my pre-workout as well. If I don't workout in the morning then sometimes I'll have kashi cereal with soy milk mixed with berries, cinnamon and protein powder.
Days that I work I have a protein bar plus greek yogurt...I don't work out on those days (volunteer EMT, 2x a month or so whenever I can) so I try to focus on lots of protein and limiting the carbs throughout the day. And I need to be satisfied for awhile...people don't stop calling 911 usually
Tend to rotate between those two mentioned above though. I love my breakfast

[Violettt]

Everyone's breakfast sounds sooo gooddddddd!
