I never used to eat breakfast, but now that I'm working out and getting healthy, I find I *have to get something in my stomach to start the day, or I go crazy by the afternoon and eat anything and everything I see!
Yes, mom, you were right.
So, I try and have a mix of healthy proteins in the morning. I hard-boil eggs on the weekend, and eat them a few times during the week. I also make oatmeal, and mix in yummy things like pumpkin, cinnamon and sugar, jelly/jam, banana, strawberries ... the list is endless.
I also have a cup or two of coffee, because it fills me up and keeps me going through lunch!

I do oatmeal in a crock pot alot. You can add a great many things to it while it cooks and it always seems to come out perfect.
1c oatmeal, 1 1/2 c water ( I like my oatmeal thin) 1 T brown sugar or substitute, 1/4 cup jam or pumpkin ( I like strawberry jam and it is optional) 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, optional 1 t apple pie or pumpkin pie spice .
Put crock pot on low and and let simmer all night. Add 1/2 cup milk in the morning and enjoy.

Hi all. Being allergic to Dairy, Cheese, Yogurt, Oats and Corn to name a few, I am always looking for breakfast meals I can change or adapt for my diet. Now generally have rice, soy or rice milk, turkey sausage or toast of french or sourdough bakery bread with soy cream cheese or peanut butter and jelly. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I don't have recipe's but I can recommand: bread! It is cheap!
Just 2 slices of (sourdough) bread with thin slices of cheese and oliveoil based margarine, and a glass of orangejuice or milk, and coffee. That is my breakfast. It is simple and enough till lunch. (Which for me is just an apple, I am not much of a foody I am afraid.)

Duchess Charlie,
Have you tried Ezekiel bread? I think they have all sorts of dietary restriction-friendly products, and the bread is very filling. I find it in the freezer section of my grocery store.

Hi this sounds good. I like bread. Not store bought but bakery heavy bread. I use veg cheese or soy and rice milk with teas.

Thank you I will have to try this bread. I think I can get it in our local Kroger or the health food store.
Good bread is a good base for the meal.

I'm diabetic, so I need a breakfast that's well-balanced and won't spike my blood sugar. Depending on my mood and laziness level, I like either scrambled eggs loaded with veggies (some combo of spinach or broccoli, plus tomatoes, onions, green pepper, mushrooms) and a little cheese, or double fiber instant Quaker oatmeal with berries (I keep frozen blueberries, raspberries and cherries - nuke 'em separately for a minute before adding oatmeal). After the oatmeal is done, I often add a heaping tsp of chunky peanut butter or an ounce of nuts.
Either of those is a real powerhouse breakfast, loaded with nutrients and protein, well balanced - but not too many calories. Nuts have fat, but it's the good kind, and if you're watching sat fats, sub one whole egg and 2 egg whites (you can do all egg whites for really low fat, but all white just looks icky). I use Smart Balance butter substitute with flax oil.
The important thing for me (and really for anyone, even non-diabetics) is that this kind of breakfast keeps your blood sugar level for hours....no highs and lows.
