Favorite healthy breakfast?

AmberLiz99 · January 2014

I find it's easy to get in a rut with breakfast food, so I thought we could share our favorite healthy choices.

My absolute favorite is a spinach, blueberry, Greek yogurt smoothie with a slice of whole grain toast with avocado on it. I could eat it almost every day. Best thing is my 2 1/2 year old loves it too, so we can split a smoothly and half an avocado.

I like making a little parfait with Greek yogurt and a little bit of granola and either blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries. Yum!

Yogurt with almond granola & an apple or banana

I was a Figure fitness competitor so a healthy breakfast to me has to consume protein... And I have a few favorites

egg white omelette with green chili and low fat motazarella, baked oatmeal or Ezekiel French toast with home made turkey sausage.

I'm jealous you can eat a smoothie as a meal! I love them but I think I need solids. Whenever I make a smoothie with the intention of it being a meal, I always feel hungrier after.

I usually like greek yogurt and fruit with some nuts, or oatmeal with walnuts and fruit.

Toast with turkey bacon, mashed avocado, sea salt and a side of fresh grapefruit. Mmmmmm

Or steel cut oatmeal with dried cherries, cinnamon and almonds

CalinAZ · January 2014

Today's breakfast is pretty great. Eggs cooks with mushrooms, a slice of bacon, half a grapefruit, and a glass of orange juice. Really trying to step up the protein and eating "real" foods.

Also love smoothies with greek yogurt, milk and mixed berries, and have been enjoying oatmeal (the slower cooking kind) with milk, bananas, walnuts, and brown sugar.

This weekend has been nice for breakfasts... egg scramble with spinach, onion, and grass fed sausage, and a clementine on the side

and sometimes a little hot sauce lol

girliegirl827 · January 2014

I eat basically the same thing every morning: scrambled eggs with some sort of vegetable thrown in (lately green/red peppers and diced onion). It's a special day when there's bacon or avocado on the side

speechie517 · January 2014

I could eat scrambled eggs with spinach and sriracha and 1/2 an avocado every day! ANother good option is overnight oats that I'll add some protein powder into.

Dixon813 · January 2014

I LOVE Smart Ones frozen breakfasts - especially the turkey sausage English muffin! Could eat it every morning!

pbandjmom · January 2014

I like to make a scramble with:

- Egg whites

- Kale

- Brussel Sprouts

- Chopped red/yellow peppers

- Feta

- Hot sauce

And coffee.

I used to have a banana peanut butter smoothie every morning, but I have thrown it up so many times this pregnancy that I an no longer able to stomach it. We have a lot of eggs since we have chickens, and left over quiche is awesome, this morning we had chocolate crepes with berries and maple syrup. My son then had the audacity to ask for dessert after finishing his plate....

AcaAwkward · January 2014

DD and I eat a green smoothie every morning for breakfast (Greek yogurt, banana, spinach or kale, at least one other fruit like berries/peaches/mangos, almond milk, and ground flax). I usually eat whatever else she is eating as well (half of a bagel with cream cheese or sliced avocado, oatmeal with cinnamon, whole grain waffle with peanut butter, scrambled eggs). It's just easier to make one thing for both of us!

*sparky* · January 2014

OK I was all ready to chime in but you guys are much healthier than me! My fave is oatmeal with a tbsp of peanut butter, raisins, apples, and cinnamon. It keeps me full for a long time. Or I have greek yogurt with Kashi Go Lean Crunch in it.

kali55 · January 2014

Scrambled eggs with spinach and tomatoes and onions

snappyK · January 2014

Bacon and egg burrito. Every day. Wut up GD.

teachingmama11 · January 2014

My favorites are Greek yogurt with berries or steel cut oatmeal with fruit of some kind.

mrsB68 · January 2014

I have no time in the morning so I need something quick or that can be packaged the night before. My go-to's:

-yogurt w/berries and a little granola

-cheerios with banana slices

-english muffin with peanut butter or jam

If I do have time to cook, I usually don't vary it that much anyway, I may just toast the english muffin in the oven and put a slice of tomato and cheese on it and melt it. I also love bagels and cream cheese but now that I'm not constantly sick anymore I try not to eat them as they're calorie suckers.

livin541 · January 2014

Cottage cheese and fruit is my go to!

SoulTermination · January 2014

Damn, you guys are making me wish I had the stuff to make breakfasts like these! Maybe after we move out Friday and I can have my own shit in the fridge without it getting eaten by someone else... :P

fourthnlast · January 2014

Oatmeal topped with crunchy peanut butter

Toast with peanut butter and sliced bananas

scrambled eggs with grapefruit

kalmte214 · January 2014

No flour pancakes-- mash 1 ripe banana with 2 egg (I also add vanilla and cinnamon). I cook them on my griddle at 250 degrees until they're light brown. Love them!

Twirple · January 2014

This morning it was 1/2 a bagel with cream cheese, yogurt and fruit.

J&NL · January 2014

Oh I like that idea! We got a ninja blender for Christmas so we've been making a ton of smoothies. I usually do a berry smoothie with protein powder, silk almond milk or Greek yogurt and some baby spinach leaves. I also LOVE pineapple and banana in my smoothies.

I need more recipes though.

J&NL · January 2014

Oh and on the not-so-healthy side. Mixes berry granola waffles are AMAZING.

rtv3 · January 2014

My 'healthy' breakfast is peanut butter cap'n crunch, a banana, and a big glass of OJ...

Love those! They are also delicious with 1Tbsp. of coconut flour mixed in and then topped with some almond butter.

DemoDoll · January 2014

I should take some notes here. I've been eating chocolate chip cookies and Mountain Dew :-SS

DemoDoll · January 2014

Can you ladies taste the kale in the smoothie? I make them with spinach all the time but I would like to try kale.

spano41 · January 2014

I've been loving my toasted bagel with cream cheese, tomato, and cucumber. So happy my body is allowing me to eat fresh veggies again!

Suzanne237 · January 2014

Not sure how healthy it is, but I've been hooked on a toasted bagel w cream cheese, capers, and tomato. So yummy. - This has been almost every day!

Sometimes a slice of ham on it, too.

NicoleAnne416 · January 2014

Muffin tin eggs. Cooked bacon (not crispy) around the edge, pour scrambled eggs + whites + spinach and peppers with almond milk scrambled- into the cups, bake. I keep them in the fridge and warm them up with a little cheese on top in the mornings when i am starving and don't feel like cooking

That, or just bacon and fruit.

fourthnlast · January 2014

Frosted mini wheats are healthy, right? It's all I want lately!

kelbel2440 · January 2014

Vanilla Greek yogurt with smashed fresh raspberries, granola, and lightly salted almonds mixed in.

britt33 · January 2014

Chocolate meal replacement shake with a spoonful of peanut butter. Mmmmm.

macynsnoop · January 2014

My new favorite, found it in cooking light magazine & made it a few days ago:
In the slow cooker on low for 3 hours, water, apple cider, steel cut oats, 10 grain cereal, cinnamon, nuts chopped & a bag of blueberries! No need for sweetener or anything & it keeps you full for a long time!

I have made smoothies with kale in the past and I would say it depends on the quality of your blender and how much you put in. Definitely can't put as much kale as you can spinach before tasting it. Also, my blender didn't always get every chunk of kale blended as well as the spinach. I have since bought a new blender (a ninja!) and have not tried it with the high quality one, but I think it would work better judging by the job it does on other things.

PB&J on toasted Ezekiel bread + side of yogurt.
Scrambled eggs with sauteed veggies cooked into them.
Cinnamon Harvest Kashi + almond milk + side of fresh fruit.
Plain instant oatmeal cooked with apple cider as the fluid, mix in chopped microwaved apple + cinnamon.

I eat this practically every day except with soy milk!

patunia7321 · January 2014

Green smoothie (greek yogurt, and/or almond milk, spinach or kale, and whatever fruit I have around)

Greek yogurt parfait w/fruit and kashi go lean crunch (I like kashi instead of granola)

I like to make my own yogurt since so many greek yogurt brands are just thickened w/corn starch & added protein instead of strained. I was irrationally annoyed by that- scam! Ha

Oatmeal w/apples, cinnamon, a little brown sugar and chopped almonds

Egg white omelette w peppers onions and cheese
