@almswoman Always 2 cups of veggies. normally my go-to is 1 cup riced cauliflower, 1 cup chopped broccoli, mushrooms. with seasonings. Most of the time I have 4oz of protein; ground chicken/turkey, shrimp, eggs, tuna, or a lean hamburger. Today I had riced cauliflower, chopped broccoli, mushrooms, spinach & tuna . I added fresh garlic (not powder), chili paste, ginger and a little lite soy sauce.

Answer 3

Maple oatmeal and my vitamins  Add a sprinkle of cinnamon for a change up. As soon as my feet hit the floor !  

Answer 4

I’m up early so it’s within an hour of my wake up time. I’ve always been a I need breakfast after I get up. I tried that intermittent fasting thing where I had to wait to eat after getting up and got very lightheaded so gave that concept up. I like variety so my breakfast choices generally can be a chocolate drink latte, pumpkin latte, apple cinnamon puffs with that one ounce of milk, crispy cereal, oatmeal, chop chip pancake mix or that herb cheese egg packet. Can you tell I love my breakfast? Lol

Comments

@isochronism93 Stockstill How much spinach do you use with the oatmeal. I may have to try this. Do you prepare it like oatmeal after or more like a hot drink?  

---

@encyclopedic I use the nutrabullet to make it in. I just grab two big handfuls of spinach and then cold water and oatmeal. I probably use more water than the oatmeal calls for. I give it a quick blend then stick the cup in the micro for 30 sec. I drink it. Its not at all like cereal. Both of my adult sons think it tastes pretty good.
