A few weeks ago I was so proud of myself making a breakfast sandwich every day, with sausage, eggs on whole wheat bread. My DH convinced me not to eat the sausage anymore because of nitrates. But I really like to eat something hearty in the morning. It keeps me full for a while longer than a bowl of cereal and fruit or yogurt. Any thoughts?
Re: favorite (healthy) breakfast?
What about if you switch out the sausage for turkey bacon? That's what i do.
I am a big fan of the Jimmy Dean DeLight breakfast sandwiches. It is egg white, turkey sausage and cheese on a whole wheat english muffin. I am sure its not the utmost of healthy meals because it is obviously processed, but still yummy.
I can't eat oatmeal, but that is very healthy and filling.
I usually go with oatmeal, and some added fruit, for breakfast ... it's healthy, and fills me up!
Being a dietitian, I don't consider sausage healthy, especially everyday.
I usually make a protein drink in the morning:
2 squeezed oranges
frozen strawberries or blueberries or mangos or raspberries (its different everyday
soy yogurt
udo's oil
protein powder
flax seed and wheat germ
frozen banana
I save half for after dinner as a snack before bed
then about an 45mins to an hour later I have two slices of Ezekiel bread with almond butter
Here's what I usually eat (most days it's cereal though):
whole grain bagel with Low fat cream cheese
egg with cheese on whole wheat toast
cereal
oatmeal
berries/banana/yogurt/granola "parfait"

This except this is my second breakfast, around 9 or 10am. My first breakfast is either Special K with whole organic milk and a banana or oatmeal with brown sugar. Something small and quick.
