good breakfast foods?

[Kaido]

okay, so I'm trying to eat healthier (doritos and kit-kats aren't cutting it for my stomach or complexion anymore). I have dinner and lunch stuff pretty much nailed down, but I need some breakfast ideas. A couple years ago, I learned how to cook scrambled eggs really well, but then I made the mistake of making them like everyday for a few weeks. I got totally sick of them and I can't stand eggs now. So...what are some healthy alternatives for breakfast that don't involve sugar? I tried out some oatmeal today, which I spiced up with some maple syrup (not bad!). I think adding raisens and sliced bananas will help with oatmeal, since I'm not too fond of it.

I really need to start up my Cooking with Kaido website again, lol...

bacon sausage and ham

 

[Zanix]

Salad bowl + pack oreos + gallon milk = nutrition





seriously though, oatmeal is a good idea. Eat it with some proteins, eggs maybe (not together.. or maybe) or peanut butter?

 

[spaceman]

try a glass of soy milk and cold pizza.

Coffee and a granola bar. Fresh fruit.

Wait, no sugar but maple syrup is ok?

powerbars.

I bolded your glaring contradiction.



Try a bowl of Total or Grape Nuts with 1% milk.

cold pizza is excellent.

anything you can put butter on is good for breakfast.

Would that be the same as preventive measures?

I'm kind of a health nut. Here's what I eat for breakfast every morning. Its easy and after 4 months I have yet to get sick of it:

4 eggs - 2 whole, 2 whites only
3/4cup old fashioned oats - add splenda and cinnamon, or some sugar free davinci's syrup
Glass of milk with a bit of whey protein added (though you don't really need the whey)
multivitamin

There ya go, nice healthy breakfast. 🙂

 

I love eggs.
Oatmeal is a good breakfast though.

I think if I add enough stuff to the eggs I can handle eating them. A monster omelet like that sounds pretty good 🙂

I've also been trying fish recently. Salmon with a sweet potatoe and cod with mixed veggies, both with soymilk. That stuff will wake you up, lol. It definately gives you energy for the day.

I think the key to not getting sick of food is to have a rotating menu. Like the saying goes, too much of a good thing is a bad thing. I've heard that having a three-day rotating menu will prevent you from getting sick of the foods you are eating.

1% milk + 1.5 scoops of whey
1 cup of oats (OLD FASHIONED, NOT INSTANT) in water, with a packet of splenda, NO MAPLE SYRUP, i don't care if you live in paul bunyon's bunyon...

have that for breakfast while drinking 8-10 glasses of water throughout the day and a sensible mid morning snack meal (see whey shake, carrots + little piece of chicken, low sugar/carb protein bar), lunch, post lunch snack (similar to mid morning snack meal) and dinner ... do this with moderate exercise 4x a week (immediately followed by 1.5-2 scoops of whey in milk and a pint of white rice), join a gym! (combine good fat with protein, or good carbs with protein, try to never have protein, fat and carbs)... u can even cheat 1-2x a week.

spring break is coming.

cliffs:
1) no sugar
2) eat about 5-6 times a day (no fat + carbs + protein, only fat/carbs + protein)
3) exercise
4) = look good nekkid

I have a friend who has eaten oatmeal every day for breakfast for the last ten years or so. He said at the beginning it was really hard, but it's routine now. I dunno tho, I need some variety 🙂

3/4 of a cup cooked or measured before cooking?


Ever try Quaker Oats (not the instant or 5 minute stuff) raw in a bowl with milk and splenda? Yummy and fast.

So do I...but the stuff is still sugar you know?

Breakfast is a hard one...There just aren't any traditionally breakfast things available that are actually healthy. cereal is the closest one, but I want something heavier usually. So its eggs. Or I just eat a sandwich.

Both work in that sentence but have slightly altered meaning (the words do not have the same exact meaning). BTW the word 'preventative' has been around since the 1600s 😉 (in case you were interested)

You will look good naked but suck on a date because you won't eat anything that tastes good.
