In keeping with my Scots heritage, I mostly have oatmeal for breakfast every morning. This is what I do and it is also a great snack when you want something sweet but don't want to get FAT:
Two or three packages of instant apple & cinnamon oatmeal. I zap it in the microwave for 30 seconds and it comes out GREAT. NO extra sugar and NO milk or cream. Instead, I pour a huge glop of natural, unsweetened applesauce on top of it. It's really YUMMY.
I also mostly don't like breakfast for breakfast, and often make a stir-fry. Or eat the stir fry from the night before. Acutally, it's lo mein. But most people don't know what that is.
Easy way to stir fry:
white ground turkey
frozen veggies (green beans, oriental mix, whatever you want)
"oriental" flavor ramen noodles (I don't know how orientals taste....or how they get them in that little pouch.....)
Cook noodles in a sauce pan and drain. Do not add seasoning YET.
Meanwhile you've been cooking the turkey in the frying pan. Use a goodly amount of oil, you'll need it, so make sure it's healthy oil (canola, olive, etc.).
Add noodles and veggies to the pan, cook off most of the water. Sprinkle the little flavor packet over everything, and sprinkle in some soy or tamari sauce. Let the noodles cook and get browned a little in the oil.
When you get it in the bowl, add a few drops of sesame oil and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
I have this at least once a week for whatever meal.
Other breakfast stuff:
Quesadillas. Flour tortilla in dry frying pan, with cheese and Herdez hot sauce inside. Sometime some cilantro too, if it hasn't gone bad. [
