Your own Egg McMuffin, English muffin, slice of cheese, sausage patty and fried egg. I buy organic English muffins from Kroger, use Gruyere cheese, either sausage/bacon/ham and egg from my hens. Yummy and quick.  

over night oats or baked oats are always good. tons of recipes out there for what ever flavors you like 

I don't know what your eating plan is. I do CICO and yogurt with fresh fruit is my favorite breakfast. 

Mine is a large cup of tea. 

banana & black coffee 

oatmeal (can mix in different fruits) or grits (can mix in different veggies). The idea is to have an inexpensive, easy base to the meal that you can add different things to for variety! 

Smoothies or cascadian farms protein bars 

Thank you all for these great suggestions. Looking forward to trying them.  

Dry toast and a fruit cup in it’s own juice, or my favorite 1/2c . Grape nut cereal with a packet of sweetener and 1/2 cup of skim milk 

Do you eat eggs? 

I used to love scrambled eggs. But now save that for special occasion. I depend on a soft poached eggs most days. Easy, hot item that can go on anything. I Blanch my veggie also, this way my first meal is easier on my digestive system. Put the poached egg on it. These days I prefer a warm or hot breakfast. Hubs like his veggie omelet. I prep the filling the night before. I don't want to work that hard cooking the 1st meal. Especially, when I can't have coffee yet. 

We like oatmeal & grits in our house like Taiwyn, but that's a winter item for us. 

fruit and yogurt smoothie, oatmeal with berries. 

A piece of pie! I like my sweets in the morning. pumpkin pie has been my go-to. 

I love eggs too! Sometimes With greens mixed In and/or veggie sausages and spinach pancakes on the side  

Let us know what you find Lynda  

For me, sweets in the morning don't work. Even if I put a shot of sugar free flavor in my coffee it triggers cravings and I feel hungrier. I like vegetables in the morning followed by a protein shake. 

Hermit58, what are you blending your protein shake with if you're not on sugar sub? Decades of diet coke messed up my system. I quit diet coke more then years ago, based on drs recommendations.  

oatmeal 

Hermit58,- using a power protein whey powder chocolate flavor , oat milk and a banana. I do not have them often - maybe 1 time a week or less. If I add any sweetener it Splenda- which I was told to use by my doctor.
