Suggestions on some quick & easy breakfast ideas?

Question

So my biggest struggle has always been breakfast. I'm not a huge breakfast person for 2 reasons, 1) I dont really like a lot of the breakfast foods, i. e. eggs, avocado, bacon, etc. (I'm weird, I know ) 2) I am up & out the door early for work, so I don't really have time to make a proper breakfast anyways. Was wondering if anyone had some suggestions on some quick & easy breakfast ideas?

Answer 1

Premier protein mixed with coffee

Comments

This is my breakfast EVERY day

---

@surfperchnie Grevers I like to make a pot and put it in the refrigerator and make iced coffee with it. Something about putting it in the refrigerator over night makes the coffee flavor even better! Have you tried the cafe latte premier shake yet?  

---

I totally make iced coffee as well and use the premier protein. I usually do decaf because I like it as a treat at night. No I haven't seen the cafe latte one yet in Canada.  

---

@surfperchnie Grevers I cant find it here in Va in stores but it’s on amazon. I think I’ll be ordering it soon but it has caffeine in it.  

---

Just looked on amazon. ca. apparently Canada is in the boonies because we can't get it lol

Answer 2

Protein shake

Answer 3

Skip it . Intermittent Fasting is tremendously beneficial. If you're not hungry, forcing yourself to eat is not helpful.  

Comments

@surfperch Please tell me more about this Intermittent Fasting PLEASE!  

---

I'd recommend two books: Delay, Don't Deny (Gin Stephens) and The Obesity Code (Jason Fung). Both outline the medical background very well. The principle is simple: Don't eat. I fast 16 hours and eat during the remaining 8-hour window. Some do 18-hour or more, but for now, 16:8 works well. I started with 13-hour fasts and moved to 14 quickly. It's helped curb my late-night snacking for sure!  

Answer 4

Protein shakes are a great way to get protein. I make one that tastes like a banana split. Yum!  

Answer 5

I’m a fan of smoothies. I like Garden of Life Meal Replacement. I use almond milk and frozen fruit. Just throw it in a blender for a few minutes. Or eat something that isn’t considered breakfast food.  

Answer 6

My breakfast is a cinnamon fiber one cake and a banana. I eat it on my way to school.  

Answer 7

Premier protein drinks and protein bars by fiber one Each 2 pt each

Answer 8

Banana sandwich - toast / I can’t believe it’s Not butter spray / sliced banana / a pinch of kosher salt. Delicious

Answer 19

I eat breakfast in the car. These are some of the items i may grab. boiled eggs, yogurt, fruit (already in baggies or banana), nuts, string cheese, rolled lunch meat (already in baggies), cut up veggies (cuke, carrots, celery, etc), cottage cheese, protein bar, toast an english muffin and eat in car, cheese & cracker. U can eat anything at any time. Doesnt have to be breakfast food at breakfast time. Your body doesnt care. It just wants nutrition.
