How do you have your breakfast?

[Sicko]

So I have talked several times about my breakfast that I eat 6-7 days a week... I have tweaked it numerous times.
But here is my latest tweak that I love!! I think about it every night before I go to bed. I cant hardly wait to eat breakfast.

CAL/CARBS/PROTIEN/FAT

1/2 cup uncooked oats 150/25/5/2
1/2 cup Kashi Go Lean 70/15/7/1
15 dried blueberries 35/7/0/0
1 cup unsweetned almond milk 40/1/1/3.5
1 tbsp Splenda 0/0/0/0
total 295/48/13/6.5

This breakfast holds me over from 5am till 9am with a active construction job.
I do not cook the oats as I have said in other posts I frikin love the taste of them uncooked, and it saves precious minutes in the morning while triyng to get off to work.
Give it a shot and tell me what you think, or what your favorite daily breakfast is...

[slfmade]

I'll give it a shot this week....So you just eat it like a ceral then, but with almond milk instead of regular skim milk?

[slfmade]

nevermind...figured it out

[Sicko]

yup..I only used milk for cereals before( gives me horrible farts).... but recently I found almond milk. The macros are killer and it tastes great even by itself. But in cereal it is great.
And yes I treat it as a cold cereal.

[slfmade]

Do you eat anything else with it for a protein source. 13g is pretty low. Or do you just make it up with your other meals.

[Dr Pepper]

Best breakfast ever? GB got me onto this one. Dependent on what your goals are though, I'm bulking so it's all good. WHEY SHAKE and OATS. Can't go past it!

Unsweetened almond milk! With those macros this is something I must try

[wmaousley]

As the only one to answer your question, I eat my McDonalds breakfast (2 meals) driving down the road every morning.

[JAB1]

Yeah mine is similar. 2 tbl spoons natty pb, 1/2 cup oats and whey in shake, and a greek yogurt. quick and easy!!

[SlimmerMe]

I too am a Kashi Golean girl...but with frozen wild blueberries.

My favorite though? OAT PANCAKES! Have you tried my recipe? Baseline got me started on the pancakes with his pic and I then added a few ingredients. If you want the recipe, let me know.

After reading about these pancakes in multiple threads I'm gonna have to try them later...
Is it mandatory to add the cottage cheese?
Can I add a scoop of protein in there?

cheers for the recipe slimmer!

[slfmade]

Slimmer...You don't have the macro breakdown for those pancakes do you? Browngirl and I are thinking of making them this week. No Biggy if you don't have it...I can break out the calculator.

[gbrice75]

Sicko, where's the protein bro? Not exactly the bodybuilder's breakfast you have, is it!?!

My current breakfast:

1/2 scoop casein
1/2 scoop ON Pro Complex
1/2 cup 1% milkfat cottage cheese
1 whole egg
1 cup oats
1/2 banana
1/2 cup blueberries

Best meal of the day!!

Tried the pancakes last night and added in a scoop of Cake Batter casein protein.. tastes incredible! thx slimmer

1 cup oats
1 cup fat free cottage cheese

cottage cheese keeps the from tasting like cardboard and I have not tried a scoop of protein yet..CHEERS to you too!

Thanks for this Jasc! I eat only a 3rd of this though as the batch ( for me) is good for 3 meals making 3 HUGE pancakes.

SO HAPPY EVERYONE IS JOINING ME ON THESE PANCAKES!

I do want to give a huge credit to Baseline for getting me started on the oat pancakes. He had a tasty looking pancake photo in his thread which made me start licking my chops thinking....
"I can eat these?"

[Rya]

I too am a fan of the protein pancakes since seeing baselines thread, tho I don't always have them, I haven't tried adding cottage cheese might do this weekend!!

[jasc]

The cottage cheese in there was actually pretty good. I've never liked it before because of the texture, but it cooks down nicely.

The protein tasted great, tasted just like chocolate pancakes. Word of caution: use sparingly. I used 1 full scoop on a half batch and it ended up turning in to clumpy cookie dough. ( speaking of that, I may have to try to turn them in to cookies sometime) I ended up adding more eggs n about 1/2 cup of water to thin it out.

Oh n I agree on the portion size. I made half a batch and got 2 large pancakes and many small ones out of it. A full batch could probably feed a hungry family.

[SlimmerMe]

the cottage cheese is the secret plus the baking powder to fluff up....

[chi]

my breaky

8 raw egg whites w/ a splash of yolk (thats how it comes from costco)
2 scoops of myofusion vanilla
1 tbsp of wheat grass powder (mixed in w/ myofusion tastes great!)
1 cup of uncooked oats (yes I eat them like a horse lol)

= lots of protein and complex carbs!!!!

I am guessing 60+ grams of protein

[Sicko]

Do you eat anything else with it for a protein source. 13g is pretty low. Or do you just make it up with your other meals.

Yeah its not the perfect breakfast for lack of protein, I do make it up later, I have a ready made protien shake from Costco that I get in my next meal.

Unsweetened almond milk! With those macros this is something I must try

I am a cereal junkie so this satisfies me without all the added fat and sugar of conventional cereals

As the only one to answer your question, I eat my McDonalds breakfast (2 meals) driving down the road every morning.

I would be a ragin fatass if I ate that...jealous that you are able to do that!!!

Yeah mine is similar. 2 tbl spoons natty pb, 1/2 cup oats and whey in shake, and a greek yogurt. quick and easy!!

Definetely good, I love morning smoothies but blender wakes up my boys and then I end up late for work cuz I have to give them some love before I leave...

I tried it with fresh, but i like the texture difference the chewy dried blueberries give it.
have not yet, I think I will try them on Sunday when I have some relax time on my hands

No its not...but it has actually helped my drop over 10 pounds in the last month and a half. I am on a cal deficit diet right now. I should invest in some pure protein powder to add to the meal so I dont add cal or sugar to it...

my breaky

8 raw egg whites w/ a splash of yolk (thats how it comes from costco)
2 scoops of myofusion vanilla
1 tbsp of wheat grass powder (mixed in w/ myofusion tastes great!)
1 cup of uncooked oats (yes I eat them like a horse lol)

Are you are eating the eggs raw in your shake?
Definitely healthier than my breakfast!! But I know it doesnt check the "taste great" box..ehehehehhh...

[Ca$tro]

My breaky -
8 egg whites, 2 whole eggs with yolk. With some glutamine.
1/2 cup oats with water.
1 cup black coffee or a NoExplode drink.

[gbrice75]

Sicko - I would definitely add some protein to that meal. 1st meal of the day is an important time to get some protein in. Think about it - it's after x amount of time without protein/any food, and also a time when cortisol levels are elevated. Protein will help blunt the effects to some degree. Personally, i'd have the Costco shake with meal 1 and eat a more substantial meal for your 2nd.

[Windex]

My breakfast isn't too exciting. Egg Whites and Oats.

Agreed...
I am going to vitamin store as soon as they open up so I can find a clean non flavored protien powder that I can add to my cereal.
I was so excited that I had tweeked a breakfast that filled me up, kept me full and didnt kill my daily macros and that I was excited to eat, that I overlooked the lack of protein...I definitely dont want to add any more volume to my breakfast as it just stretches out my stomach and makes the day much harder to stay in my zone. If I have eggs and such in the morning I am starving by 7-8am. If my goal was to bulk up or even maintenance that is the direction I would head.
Thanks for the input GB.

[Sgt. Hartman]

Mine is also the oat pancakes.

1 cup egg whites
2 whole eggs
1 cup ground oats
Splash vanilla
Splenda

Sometimes I add protein powder and more oats when gaining, this is my cutting/priming version.

I cover all the pancakes in zero cal syrup from walden farms. Delicious.

Might have to try the baking powder like Slim said, I miss the fluffiness of a real buttermilk pancake.

[Sgt. Hartman]

As the only one to answer your question, I eat my McDonalds breakfast (2 meals) driving down the road every morning.

What do you order from McDonalds?

[DeadlyD]

I have 1 cup kashi or granola 1 cup raw oats 1 cup fat free Greek yogurt with berries and half a banana and a whey shake!!...... I made those pancakes today and loved em!!

[DeadlyD]

[dooie]

I've been getting into the shakes for breaky for a while now,
3/4 cup oats
1 over heaped scoop of protein
Cup of egg whites
Water (colder the better)
