There are good healthy cereals (like GoLean Crunch or Autumn Wheat - Kashi brand) which are chunky enough not to need a spoon to eat them with!

Baked sweet potatoes - another healthy food - are delicious cold, bake the day before, wrap in foil and take along.

I love sweet potatoes, but have never tried them cold! I'll have to give it a whirl. I sometimes have cereal or oatmeal at work, too, but I'm not always at the office. I travel many days of the week around town or out of town a ways to several schools, so a lot of eating is done in the car (I know, it's not supposed to be safe, but I only eat really easy things in the car!). Thanks for the idea.

Toast an english muffin, slather with butter, sprinkle on garlic powder and then goes on the pickled jalapino slices. A pepper sandwich, brilliant ! A little can of grapefruit juice and yer good to go. If you have the time have time a few slices of bacon and a slice of tomato on this and it is really good.

For variety, you can sprinkle crumbled bacon on top before baking - yum! I've also mixed into the eggs some crumbled pan fried breakfast sausage before baking and that was good too.

Hi Rickers,
Nice to talk to someone I feel like I "know" from the MT & WY threads on here

When I used to have to get up at 5:00AM to go to work, it was two cigarettes and a cuppa coffee. That would sure get you going Fortunately I'm retired now and don't smoke anymore

I hate breakfast but try to find something to go with my coffee. The one thing I've found that I can choke down in the morning is peanut butter on graham crackers. The protein of the p. butter keeps me full for quite a while. The only other thing I like is the Kashi trail mix bar.

I like to make my own muffins, pumpkin, banana nut, lemon poppy seed etc. They freeze well and are already made nice breakfast.

I just don't do well without protein as part of my breakfast. Even on the rare occasions when I'm by myself in the morning and don't want to cook, I still make sure to include at least peanut butter in my morning snack. Peanut butter and honey on a toasted English muffin makes for a mighty tasty breakfast.

Back about 100 years ago, on one of the many, many occasions that I was in Weight Watchers, someone brought in a WW-friendly recipe for a homemade breakfast bar. It included peanut butter, raisins, chocolate Alba powder, I think oatmeal - some kind of starch, anyway - and according to the system in use at the time, it equated to one each "exchange" of protein, milk, fruit, starch and fat. I have no idea how many points it would be in today's version. The thing about it was that you made it up the night before, wrapped it in plastic and stuck it in the fridge for next morning, making it almost impossible to come up with an excuse not to have breakfast. If I can find the actual ingredients and quantities, I'll come back and post it.

Very often we just fry a few slices of thin bacon, nice and crispy and have it with a side of refried beans and a hot flour tortilla.
