What do you typically eat for breakfast?
« on: June 06, 2007, 05:35:56 PM » |

I need to start eating healthier. My dinners aren't bad, but my breakfasts before work are often a croissant/muffin + coffee from a cafe, or worse, McDonald's.  So I'm looking for new ideas for breakfast. What do you usually eat for breakfast on weekdays? |

Sorry no new ideas from me, I'm a coffee and a muffin/english muffin/bagel/raisin toast guy myself. In a pinch I'll settle for coffee and cookies or a baggie of dry Cheerios. |

No help here either. If it's a weekday, I don't eat breakfast as a rule. Only coffee. If it's a weekend, I drink the same thing I did the night before. Every great once in a now and again, if we stay at a hotel or something, I'll have an English muffin, from the complimentary free-for-all, end of days, loss of human dignity, hog trough, food shelf,  Continental Breakfast ..........if there's one left.  |

Keeping with the fiber theme AM started with his diver tick u lie tis thread I have a few options that I vary.
Oatmeal with just a hint of brown sugar (not much) and generally some berries on top (blue, black, straw, changes).
I also found a Kashi high fiber cereal that I like, with soy very vanilla milk, not bad. Sometimes I'll scramble a couple of eggs (maybe once a week) and have them with whole wheat English muffins with some natural blackberry preserves, sometimes I'll just have the muffin and some fruit, bananas, apple, orange...
Everybody always says "I don't have time for breakfast", it's only a few minutes, make time.

Oatmeal with raisins. I keep a container of Quaker Oats in my credenza, quart of skim milk in the fridge, and keep an oversized coffee mug at my desk. There's a microwave in the break room at my office. Each morning put some oatmeal and water in the mug, nuke it for a minute, drop in a mini-box of raisins and ready to go.
Cool thing about this is if I get a mid-afternoon snack craving I just do the oatmeal again. Much less damaging than anything I'm going to get out of the vending machine.

3 chocolate Hostess Donettes, sometimes I switch up with the crunchy ones, and lots and lots of coffee, cream only.

Monday-Saturday: two cups of half-caf coffee, probably organic Pop-Tart wannabes or cereal (Cheerios, Corn Chex, Corn Flakes, or similar).
Sunday: one cup of half-caf coffee, then brunch with the youngster (likely an omelet, French toast, or pancakes; bacon; toast).
