What do you eat for breakfast? _v02
May 28, 2008
Ahhh the question of the week. I almost forgot!!
While making eggs with the toddler this morning, it hit me. Hmmm I wonder what everyone else is having for breakfast these days. I tend to reach for the same handful of options over and over again and it’s getting boring.
So…. What do you eat for breakfast?
I’m hoping to get a good list going!
Ok, I’m going crazy! I asked this question a few months back! LOL

Apple Sauce Oatmeal and a hard boiled egg…So yummy.
1c Oats cooked with 1 c skim milk…then I add 1T ICBINB Spray, .5T Splenda Brown, and 1/2 cup of sugar free apple sauce. I usually only eat about 1/2 of what I make and save the rest for my hubby.

Pumpkin Pie Yogurt. I got the recipe idea from Kath Eats.
200 g source vanilla yogurt
1/2 canned pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp each of pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla extract
Sometimes, I’ll add some granola for crunch or I’ll make it the night before, add some quick oats and let it sit in the fridge overnight. Very tasty and filling indeed.

Seriously some days I crave it!

Funny I NEVER ate breakfast pre WW. I can’t go without it now. I have several things I eat regularly.
1. Kashi go lean cereal(the high protein kind not the crunch) mixed with lt yogurt. This is my on the run breakfast I eat it in a big coffee cup on the way to work.
2. Veggie scramble with lot of veggies and maybe cheese or canadian bacon and lt toast.
3. egg white sandwich with canadian bacon. Another on the go breakfast.
4. Steele cut oats and whatever fruit I have on hand mixed in.
5. My new favorite hot cereal is oat bran with fruit.
6. Roni’s whole wheat pancakes topped with yogurt.
COFFEE lots of it with all of the above. If I think of something else I will post.
Thanks

I’m quite boring, I kind of do two different things…
1. 1 1/2 cups bran cereal and 1/2 cup milk with Splenda (5 points)
2. 2 slices of bread, 1 Tbsp. peanut butter and 1/2 banana (4 points)

And coffee with 3tbsp of carnation fat free french vanilla creamer.

My breakfast gets boring too at times:
Low-fat lite yogurt with a sprinkle of Kroger brand low fat granola. Sometimes I will add grapes or blackberries. 2-points, 3 if I add extra fruit
Egg Beater omelette with a slice of 2% cheese with a couple of slices of lite toast
Cup of corn flakes with 1/2 cup 1% Milk – 3 points
Light toast with two teaspoons of Reduced fat Peanut Butter.
BTW, I read in Women’s Health (May Issue) that if a person got 22 to 50 percent of their total daily calories at breakfast, they gained only 1.7 pounds on averae over four years. Those who ate zero to 11 percent of the cals in the AM gained nearly three pounds.
Makes sense to eat breakfast.

Talk about boring – I’ve eaten the same exact breakfast every day for the past 5 years: Kashi GoLean Crunch with a handful of frozen mixed berries, skim milk, and a sprinkle of ground flaxseed. On the rare occasions where I have to eat out for breakfast, I’ll have this as my lunch or dinner. I literally eat this for one meal every single day, but it’s so good, I never get tired of it, and I truly think it has helped me maintain my weight.

My current favorite breakfast is a piece of toasted Ezekiel bread with peanut butter and a bowl of nonfat greek yogurt and fresh fruit. Filling and delicious and hits all the right spots: salt, sweet, crunchy, creamy…yum!
For variation, I like making oatmeal, sometimes mixed with other whole grains, and the occasional egg breakfast. Scrambled eggs with spinach and nonfat feta and a side of fresh tomato is delicious.

1 container of Yoplait Light (any flavor) + 1/4 cup of craisins
It runs about 200 calories, and you get a nice serving of protein, dairy, and fruit to start the day. It’s also very portable for those of us who eat at work.
I’ve experimented with different flavors on the yogurt, but I tend to prefer the apple turnover.

Im so boring during the week as it’s all rushed.
2 or 3 wedges of Laughing Cow cheese (hastily crammed in mouth whilst doing 11 other things. Good fast protein/fat.)
Spoonfuls of flax & chia (inhaled as fast as I can while Toddler Tornado yells “I want that! I want that!”)
2 cups of scrambled egg beaters/substitute.
some oatmeal (half cup? Im guesstimating) hastily made and left to sit on counter until lumpy & cold (perfect!) and I can eat it quickly.
2 morning star farms veggie patties (love.)
(water, vitamin, tums for calcium, extra vitamin C)
it’s all kinds of glamour up in herre in the mornings.
GREAT QUESTION as I so enjoyed the comments!

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day so I have lots of ideas.

2. special k vanilla and milk, with blueberries or raspberries
3. fibre 1 honey clusters and milk
4. ww bread french toast- 2 slices with 1 egg + 1 egg white, no sugar syrup
5. crumpet and no sugar fruit preserves, or light pb
6. 2 egg omelet with lots of veggies, 1 egg and 1 egg white
7. ww english muffin with egg and canadian bacon and light cheese (this is a splurge!)

During the summer months I LOVE eating fresh fruit or fruit smoothies for breakfast with an oz. of almonds. During the winter I usually do 1/4 cup of egg beaters with cut of veggies, and eighter eat it with whole wheat toast or wrap it in a tortilla. It’s almost like I crave the juicy fruit during the hot months. And its a very refreshing breakfast!

Love to read the responses – great thread!
I usually eat either steel cut oats with frozen berries and a half banana topped with Fage and ground flax or a veggie egg white omlette with a WW pita. I also like the Van’s 97% FF waffles with thinned PB2 dripped on top and a little maple syrup, mmmm soo good!

I have a toasted Thomas’s light multigrain english muffin with 1/4 c. garden veggie egg beaters, 1 slice WW american cheese and 2 slices Land O Frost canadian bacon for 3.5 pts. I try to stay low on breakfast points and this does that while leaving me satisfied.

I eat either:
3 egg whites and 1 whole egg, hardboiled
or
3 egg whites and 1 whole egg, scrambled with cheese and veggies in a 1 pt wrap
Depends on how hungry I am.
If I’m in a rush, I’m digging the Bagelfuls these days. Not super-healthy but much better than grabbing a bagel or muffin out.

I love to eat chicken salad. I get up around 4 am, so by 8, I am starving! I have an apple around 5 and then either a turkey sandwich or a chicken salad sandwich (made with low fat mayo, chicken, spices, celery and onion) and that keeps me full until lunch!

Today I had an oatbran pancake with 1/2c egg beaters on the side. This combo has a lot of protien and fiber.
Normally I have 2 breakfasts basedon the weather:
Hot Weather: some kind of high fiber cereal mix with milk
Cold Weather: Oatbran followed by yogurt
But, if you want to try something new…have you ever had soy chorizo?

I’ve been experimenting, trying to find something that STAYS with me til noon. Success with my last two days: a smoothie of 1/2 a frozen banana, 1 T. almond butter, 1 cup light soy milk, a scoop of protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, Splenda, 1 cup crushed ice… YUM! and today, I threw in a cup of spinach – can’t even tell it’s there!

Almost always oatmeal… the real honest-to-goodness rolled oats kind. I like it thick, so I use anywhere from 1/2 to 3/4 cup of oats depending on how hungry I am, then add about 1.5 times that of water, and microwave for 2.5 minutes. Then add about 1/2 T brown sugar and 1/2 T half-and-half. (a splurge that I’ve grown used to, and only 0.5 pt)
The 2.5 minutes allows me to deal with MY toddler during the time, getting him food and getting his shoes on, etc. :)

I take a slice of low fat Kraft American Cheese (30 calories) and stick divide it up onto a Thomas’s light multigrain english muffin (100 calories) and toast it. [130 calories total]
Sometimes I put a thin slice of Buddings deli ham on with it to make it taste a lot like a McDonald’s Egg McMuffin. (145 total calories)
Along with a big 16 oz mug of hot tea. The tea makes me feel warm and full and the gooey of melted cheese is nice.

Nothing too fancy. I usually have a bowl of sugar free shredded wheat, lactaid milk and either rasberries or banana.
Once a week, I do splurge off the WW diet and go out to eat breakfast. That usually ends up being a large egg beater omelette or a pancake.

I’ve been having cereal most days. My favorite is Nature’s Path Optimum Slim cereal, 1 cup has something like 10g protein and 11g fiber. I’m not exactly sure of those numbers (box got thrown away the other day), but 1 cup of it with whatever fruit I have around and about 3/4 cup skim milk, and I’m good to go for at least 4-5 hrs. Its got a nice flavor to it, lots of different textures too. Sometimes I eat it dry as a snack too. It works out to about 5 points, depending on how much fruit and how much milk I add.

cereal with berries or a banana (usually Special K or cheerios)
Eggo waffles, plain or with SF syrup
egg on wheat toast or English muffin
oatmeal when it’s cold outside
occasionally a smoothie or a yogurt
cereal bars or special K bars when I’m in a hurry and don’t have time fo the above.

I typically have plain oatmeal topped with my Berry topping:
1 pkg. frozen mixed berries
1/4 C sugar
2 T cornstarch
2 T water
Bring sugar & fruit to a simmer, stir in cornstarch thinned in water. 4- 1/2 C servings (2 WWPS)
I like to keep this topping cold and serve it on the hot oats – quicker cool down. 4.5 WWPs total.
I also love 1C Cheerios with 1/2 C 1% milk and a banana sliced into it.

I am a HUGE fan of the Western Bagel. Low points for a nice sized bagel. I love the onion with low fat chive cream cheese. It has more than 5 grams of fiber ( making it 1 point..well two with the cream cheese!)so it keeps me full.
Only problem is they can be difficult to find. Publix carries them but you have to look for them.
I think their website has a retail locater.

WOW! I guess i’ll try every recipie here for my breakfast! Now about what I have… I have an omlet and then apple and then I have a smoothie mixed with purple. I mix purple as it gives the yummiest taste ever and it is sugar free except for the sugar from the fruits and it has 7 fruit juices in it, it is the best and the strongest antioxidant punch ever. All this makes me feel full and fit. In case you want to find out more about this purple you can check http://www.drinkpurple.com. Why don’t you people try it and let me know and yes if you people see Oprah you must have seen it there in one of her episodes.

Another breakfast I have is Special K Protein Plus with fresh berries. 3/4 c of cereal is 100 calories, 3g fat, 5 fiber. This is another goody that will keep you full.
Enjoy!

I love breakfast food, and have it for dinner as well pretty frequently. A few of my favorite combinations: High fiber cereal (Kashi Heart to Heart, oat bran flakes, Weetaibx crispy flakes and fiber, etc) with banana and skim milk or yogurt. Oatmeal or 10 grain cereal made with cow/ soy/ hemp milk, usually cooked with banana, lots of cinnamon, vanilla and flax seed. Or, high fiber pancakes with some combination of fruit preserves, plain yogurt, but butter and maple syrup. Yum. I really love breakfast :)

Love 1/4 cup pumpkin in steel cut oats with pumpkin pie spice, I throw in applesauce and or yogurt as well, just discovered Chia seeds to round it out. 1T has 20 calories and 2.5 grams fiber, and high omega threes and an interesting texture – expands in liquid.
On July 29th, 2009 at 11:53 am Laura said:
These are all great ideas!
I usually have 3 hard boiled egg whites and plain oatmeal with 1/2 cup blueberries for 3.5 pts total. Sometimes I have a banana instead of the berries making it 4 pts total. I try to space out when I eat all this so I am full all morning-usually the eggs between 8 and 9 and the oatmeal at 10. That has helped me a lot. For dinner, and sometimes for breakfast, I have 1/2 cup Fiber One, 1/2 cup Kashi Go Lean, 1/2 cup blueberries and 1 cup skim milk for a 4 pt meal that is REALLY filling.

What I call a “tri-egg scramble” made with 1 part egg beaters, 1 part egg white, and 1 part whole egg; 3 slices Oscar Mayer Naturally Smoked Center Cut bacon; bell peppers; and 1 tsp olive oil. It’s two servings and my fiance eats the other half. I usually stick my half in a 1-point, whole wheat bread product like pita bread, a tortilla, or a sandwich thin. Sometimes I’ll add a small amount of low-fat or fat-free cheese. Including the bread and cheese, it clocks in at 5 points. :)
And when the boy can’t make it over here in the morning to make breakfast, I’ll usually have a bowl of fiber one with 1% organic milk or soy milk, or have breakfast sandwiches (turkey breakfast sausage patty, 1-point english muffin, 1/4 cup egg beaters, and RF cheddar–5 pts) already prepared in the freezer for easy nuking.
