My go-to breakfast every day is a cut up apple (I usually times I microwave it for 18 seconds) 1/4 cup no salt cottage cheese, a drizzle of honey, 4/5 Trader Joes praline pecans, and a nice dusting of cinnamon.

I also use whole wheat , toasted , w/ chunky pb and an apple or banana with walnuts. Or, olive oil and sweet pepper, onions, garlic and one scrambled egg.

When I was working I made a lot of overnight oatmeal. I used a half cup of steel cut oats, half cup of plain Greek yogurt, a tsp vanilla, a Tbsp chia+flax seed, sometimes some peanut butter, and a drizzle of honey. Stir all together (I would usually make 3 days worth at one time). In the morning I would just add some fresh fruit, stir that in and enjoy. If I was running late I could just take it to work and eat it there.

I also enjoy a scrambled or poached egg with some bacon and spinach stirred in from time to time.

I eat low carb so breakfasts are usually a cheese omelet. Sometimes I add mushrooms, sausage, etc. but many times it is just cheese.

I usually have 100% organic whole wheat bread (I make it myself and add some cinnamon and cocoa powder) with 1 Tbl of peanut butter and 1 tsp of "all fruit" jelly. Otherwise I make a couple of hard boiled eggs and have that with toast or a muffin top. On weekends, I make an omelet...either with sauted peppers and onions or spinach is good too.

Two pieces of toasted rye bread (gluten free) and when toasted I just put in a piece of swiss cheese and put together like a sandwich. I either run or go to the gym early each morning and have a banana before that and the rye bread/cheese sandwich after.

Here are a few of my favorites: oatmeal w/ walnuts & raisins, toasted English muffin w/jam or peanut butter & honey, omelette w/ spinach & cheese or a toasted bagel w/ scrambled eggs & cheese.

Usually Dave's Killer Seed bread, thin sliced, with butter. But sometimes an egg and bacon. I also eat fruit most mornings such as a whole grapefruit, an apple or a bowl of blackberries. And coffee, always coffee.

My faves are:

1% cottage cheese (comes in handy 4oz containers) with sliced fresh mango and blueberries.

A poached egg over broccoli or asparagus

A good quality plain greek yogurt, with no-sugar preserves of your choice (or microwaved left over fruit with cinnamon)

I have been into smoothies lately. I use a scoop of whey protein (~ 2T), and two froozers (they are like fruit pops made from only fruit, and i like them because they are in essence already chopped up and already a mix of fruit flavors), and then I add enough almond milk to get the texture i like.

Sliced banana dipped in fresh ground peanut butter and rolled in wheatgerm.

Baked cinnamon apple with yogurt and sliced almonds.

oatmeal w pumpkin puree and spices

Sometimes I will have cheese and grapes or apples.

I love cereal esp shredded mini wheat, with fresh berries. I also am surprised that I like the Special K w dried strawbs, had it somewhere out and liked it.

Mt fave bread is this one: (my kids love it too and think white bread is blah) https://www.alvaradostreetbakery.com/breads/Sprouted%20Multi-Grain%20Bread 

PS Here are Froozers. They make smoothies very easy. https://www.froozer.com/

Toasted English muffin or bagel spread with ripe avocado. And juice......I gotta have me my OJ!!

I eat plain yogurt mixed with fruit and topped with nuts pretty much every morning for breakfast.

My most common breakfast is a whole-grain English muffin, toasted, with a bit of butter and then cottage cheese on top. Sometimes Swiss or cheddar, or natural peanut butter (no sugar) with sliced banana on top.

My other breakfast is Cheerios, mix of regular and multi-grain, with ground flaxseed, skim milk, and sliced banana.

It's easy to get tired of the routine. DH usually boils an egg with toast for breakfast.

Overnight oats?

https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/overnight-oats-3416659

On workdays breakfasts are simple and easily packed to go: overnight oatmeal as Outside mentioned (I add frozen blueberries and frozen strawberries), a hard boiled egg and a V-8 juice or a protein bar on the bus when I go into the city 2 days/week. On weekends DH makes omelettes of various varieties. And coffee, always a very large mug of coffee.

I’ve been eating whole wheat toast , with a layer of mashed avocado and a scrambled egg on top. While I’ve had avocado toast quite a bit, at a local restaurant, they added egg on top and it was delicious. I don’t like runny yolk so I prefer to scramble mine.

i also make a scrambled egg hash - I dice up whatever veggies I have on hand, usually zucchini, red onion and red bell pepper, sauté, then added in raw spinach and halved grape tomatoes, I pour the egg in and just sort of scramble along with the veggies. Sometimes I add a tiny bit of feta cheese.

when berries are in season, I rinse and put in a bowl, add a dollop of plain Greek yogurt, a tsp of honey we get fresh from a coworker’s bees and a sprinkle of almond granola for crunch.

Thanks everyone! Your posts are making my hungry.

1 minute microwave poached egg over seeded rye toast

Thx Delilah i will try that method. Thx too to the posters who reminded me about avocado!

I used to have this frequently, need to do it again. I prefer thin English toasting bread but whatever you like, toasted, spread a very thin layer of cream cheese, your choice, take a steamed/ boiled egg sliced in the slicer and lay it out on top of the cream cheese. Then drizzle a very little bit of blue agave nectar over it. I get my salty and just a hint of sweet.

If I eat breakfast, I like protein and fat because it keeps me full longer and I tend not to snack as much. I usually go for full-fat greek yogurt with cinnamon and a few berries and maybe some flax or chia seeds, hard boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, and the like. Sometimes I'll eat an avocado. I don't eat oatmeal, toast or cold cereal, because I am hungry again soon after. Sometimes I fast and skip it altogether, which definitely helps the morning routine!

I totally wish I liked yogurt...I keep trying and trying. Just can't get past the sour taste (might be my own taste buds as my family all love it...)

I made this today but it wasn't as good as it looked. You have to take some of the avocado out to leave room for the egg. Dice a piece of precooked bacon for each, add S&P and bake on 425 for around sixteen minutes depending on how you want your egg. I saved the scooped out avocado and added the baked tomato to it after.

Not sure I would make this again but if so I would sprinkle some red pepper and diced green onions on top. It needed more of a kick for my taste.

Ready for the oven.

Done!

I like protein and fat too at breakfast as it does keep me full. I try to limit sugar at breakfast although sometimes I add a dab of peach preserves to my toast.

I also avoid grains for breakfast, and almost every day begins w/2 eggs, boiled for 5 minutes or scrambled w/ butter and tarragon, and a large serving of seasonal fresh fruit, along w/ a big cup of green jasmine tea. Today the fruit was a tiny papaya from my tree and 2 pears. If I know I'm going to be having a late lunch, I do the scrambled eggs w/ butter and have an ounce or so of cheese as well. If I slept late and lunch is soon, I'll have a handful of almonds instead of eggs.

This has worked well for me for years now; I don't get hunger pangs, and feel energetic too.

I have to have protein for breakfast! I get shaky a few hours after getting up if I don't.

My equivalent for a really quick/healthy lunch was to grab a non-fat yogurt, banana, and granola bar. No idea of total nutrition content, but it sounded right. :)

I am catatonic for the first hour after I get up. It's easier to have the same thing every day. I have Barbara's Morning Oats with fruit, usually blueberries. Black coffee, hot and strong!

Some great ideas here!

For those who eat overnight oats, do you ever heat it? I made some, and it was tasty, but I realized that I prefer something warm for breakfast. Maybe in July when it's already 80 degrees at 7:00 AM, it will be good.

Healthy, low carb breakfasts here. Never pastries, they leave me dizzy. I'll have 2 eggs: boiled, poached, fried, or as an omelet. If an omelet, I like with cheese and random veggies. Avocado slices are good. Full fat organic Stonyfield yogurt or goat yogurt, plain. I might add some fruit but I never buy yogurt with stuff already added -- due to excess sugars.

I've done salad for breakfast.

I'm also fine with leftovers from a night or two before.

I avoid grains, by and large. Maybe five times a year I'll start my day with real (never instant) oatmeal.

Coffee. Sometimes green tea or Earl Grey tea. (No milk or sweeteners.)

I make a healthy breakfast for DH and myself 7 days a week. I love to cook, and enjoy this time with my sweet DH before he leaves for the clinic. I'm out in the kitchen at 6:30AM, giving myself 30 minutes to brew the coffee, make a well-balanced breakfast and pack him a lunch. DH needs it or he gets shaky by midmorning. So, I need quick tried-and-true things to make. Here are some of my favs: And, BTW, everything has to be non-messy so that DH, who by this time is dressed for work with a freshly ironed dress shirt, a tie, and dress slacks, doesn't drop it on himself (LOL).

1) Avocado Toast : toasted and lightly buttered (with Smart Balance) Ezekiel bread (1-2 slices each), spread with mashed avocado and sometimes chopped tomato. One slice of turkey bacon cut in half or 2 turkey sausage links. And always coffee and a homemade green juice, yogurt and fruit smoothie.

2) Bob's Red Mill 10-Grain Hot Cereal: quick to make; delicious, very healthful and filling. I add chopped walnuts and dried blueberries while it cooks. Topped with vanilla almond milk.

3) Scrambled eggs using Egg Beaters Southwest Egg Mix. When done, I top it with chopped fresh tomatoes, a dollop of Greek Low fat cream cheese, and arugula or baby spinach. I'll add 2 sausage links on the side. Plus coffee and a smoothie.

4) I prebake one of Trader Joes Cauliflower Pizza Crusts, cut it into wedges and then rewarm in my m/w in the morning. Topped with lemon curd or other jam, it's healthful, easy, quick and filling. I using things like this in place of bread, as we try our best to avoid empty carbs: most breads, white and brown rice, potatoes, wheat and rice flour anything including pastas (we eat red lentil pastas instead), ). And we try to go easy on sugar, too.

5) Costco sells frozen, individual "crustless quiches" which are actually just individual breakfast frittatas. Those are also tasty and quick to heat up in the m/w.

6) Costco's Australian something mini muffins.

* I have a warming oven, so this also helps me to be able to get everything ready more easily.

I love the mini frittatas I make once a week. They are a grab and go meal for both of us. Ingredients can include anything you like in an omelet or frittata....chopped veggies of any kind, meats, cheese, salsa, etc. I make a dozen at a time with a variety of ingredients; they store well in the fridge or freezer.

I don't have a recipe, but there are a zillion online. I use 7 or 8 of the home grown eggs a friend gives us, gifts from her prolific pet hens. Sometimes, the eggs are so big that the egg carton won't close. ;-)

I'm also a long time Magicbullet user, making a delicious concoction of greens and a combination of fruits at some time during the day, with a protein powder if it's my breakfast of the day.

Rihzo, do you cook these and freeze them? I'm also catatonic in the AM so I'm always intrigued by things that require as few of my brain cells as possible...

I have frozen them, but I typically keep them in a container in the fridge. I make mini muffins, they heat up in 30 seconds on high, for two, but your mw might be different.

I only make a dozen at a time; between the two of us they don't last long.
