[quote:610fddfd1a="RBrownson"] Another easy and fast breakfast I like is a fruit smoothie. I do it in the food processor, and drink while blowing my hair dry. I usually make from whatever fruit I have, but find berries work the best. Here's an example. (I usually buy large bags of frozen berries and use those--frosty goodness!) Woke up late smoothie (3 blocks): 1 cup frozen raspberries (1C) 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (1C) 1/2 cup plain yogurt (1C, 1P) 2/3 scoop vanilla soy protein isolate powder (2 P) a little warm water to make it smooth Splenda or stevia to taste Blend berries, yogurt and a little water in food processor until smooth. While motor is running, add protein powder. (Scrape bowl if necessary). Add sweetener to taste. You can add olive oil (1T=3F) to it if you want the fat in it, or eat nuts on the side, which is what I usually do. This is also portable--you can drink from a travel mug in your car--but bring a straw or you will have a pink moustache! (Got smoothie?) :lol: Enjoy!

You're very welcome! I enjoy it, too--a healthy "treat" that really does hold me until lunch! :) Ronica

I like to add veggies to my eggs in the morning like sauted mushrooms, onion and spinach for a florence-ish omelet or diced bell peppers and onions and black beans and top with salsa for a tex-mex flair. and if I need breakfast to go, I'll opted for a 1/2 of a whole wheat pita or 2 slices of Orowheat "light" whole wheat bread (it works out to 2 bks or unfavoerable carbs, but when you're in a rush :wink: ) when in season, I like to have some strawberries or grapes -- you can put those in a baggie and take them with to eat in the car.
