What is your breakfast routine? 🄚

I always have a dozen hard boiled eggs for the morning. I’ll crack and cut in half then sprinkle with S&P with a dash of maple siracha.

I also make breakfast burritos by the dozen with scrambled eggs, cheddar, potatoes, and a rotating mix of either sausage, turkey sausage, or chopped spinach.

I’ve made raspberry cheese danishs out of puff pastries before then just kept them in a giant Tupperware container.

A breakfast menu from you guys would be awesome. Hopefully with some kind of ā€œmake aheadā€ or ā€œeasy prepā€ option for items.

I would love to see Low Carb Breakfast meal plans since I am a beginner with the low carb meals. This app is going to be a huge timesaver for me and my husband with planning meals. I would love to be able to have my grocery list all in this one app instead of having to split them for breakfast. My husband get’s up an hour before I do to cook breakfast for us so we have a good meal to start our day off right. I prepare dinner and use the leftovers for lunches. This keeps us in a steady routine. Now that we are switching things up to a low carb meals it’s a lot different for us since we alway had some form of bread with our breakfast. A LOW CARB breakfast meal plan would be fantastic for us to have to be able to stay with this healthy lifestyle change. I would also like to see options for low carb snacks too. Thanks!

I love a simple & quick breakfast.
Right now I’m into smothering avocado on a piece of toast with a fried egg on top. If time permits I’ll doctor up the avocado into a simple guacamole.

If a breakfast recipe calls for a long drawn out process - I’ll pass…

I like a breakfast that’s quick and that I can easily share with my one year old. :smile:

I always always eat breakfast. Seriously can’t skip it. I’m a Type 1 Diabetic, so, although I’d love a bowl of cereal, when I do, it totally messes me up. I’m also prepping breakfast for kids, while making lunch a few days a week.
Because I do consider it a real meal, here are some of our most common:
Cottage cheese or yogurt & fruit
Cereal or oatmeal
Eggs, bacon (turkey or piggy), and toast
PB & Fruit smoothie
PB sandwich
Fast run out the door = crackers & cheese or PB, or granola bar
Weekends are pancakes, waffles, muffins or biscuits
Guests get overnight oats or a breakfast casserole
Premade burritos occasionally make it into my freezer for quick grab

Bulletproof coffee for me.

I make eggs, oats, or turkey bacon ( or some combo) for my 9 year old. Or special k with strawberries (and I add extra dehydrated strawberries from Trader Joe’s) with almond milk.

I’m getting 2 kids ready and making their lunches along with taking care of a baby so my mornings are hectic. Usually it’s cereal or oatmeal for the kids and later I have cereal or a bagel. Some mornings I skip it, not a huge breakfast fan, and eat an early lunch. I would absolutely love some make ahead or quick recipe ideas.

Coffee. Maybe grab a granola bar or a piece of fruit as I run out the door. I would love to see ideas for meals I could prep the night before and not have to cook in the morning. Or something I could microwave in the break room at work, at least cut work days. Weekends are a different story. I love big weekend breakfasts!

My breakfast routine is to pack something and take it to work. I would love recipes for stuff like healthy pancakes that I could eat hot on Sunday and then take with to heat up on Monday. A recipe for make your own granola bars that could be grabbed quickly in the morning or a quick microwave omlet idea would be good, too.My routine changes from applesauce and cinnamon to cereal to just fruit to smoothies to left over pizza. Crock pot ideas would be good…Prepare at night and ready to take in the morning…

I love the ability to make ahead breakfasts that double as healthy, high protein, portable snacks (so rarely including eggs or ingredients that need refrigerated). Granola bars, black bean brownies, hash brown cakes in mini muffin tins, etc. I will try to make enough for the week and then just toss a couple of whatever they are in my bag and I’m out the door.

The idea of make the night before from dinner leftovers is also genius. I would be into that too. Crock pot ideas would be the dream! The quick and easy morning is key.

Thanks!

I have busy mornings so I do well when I plan ahead. I think keeping it simple is key. One favorite is overnight oats In a mason jar. I just take a pint size jar and add 1/2 to 3/4 cup of 1-minute oats (not instant) and the rest of the ingredients vary, depending on mood or supply:slight_smile:
A couple of tablespoons of chia seeds, 1/4 or so cup of milk (I use non-dairy), 1/2 or so cup of water. Cinnamon and maple syrup, Stevia or raw honey. In the morning, I add fruit.
Sourdough pancakes or English muffins can be easy bec if my starter dough is ā€œfedā€ the day before to make a batch - it is almost like having a mix! I am just getting back into this.
My other breakfast (and/or lunch) favorite is healthy smoothies and shakes!

Last year I started using a juicer, mostly with vegetables. Means that I keep a lot of carrots, celery, apples, cabbage etc on hand. For the last month or so I have been making quick juices for breakfast–usually trying to figure out really quick what I have left in the fridge and what would work together.

Might be nice to factor all that together with grocery shopping and prepping of meals.

I have found eating breakfast is beneficial to keeping me more satisfied all day. So sometimes I fix French toast or an egg and toast. Would love to have recipes for 2 servings that I can put together the night before and bake while I am getting ready for work.

Sometimes, I scramble eggs, onions and whatever else I want to put in my omelet and put it in muffin pans and bake them. I toss 2 in a ziplock bag. Sometimes, I drink green smoothies.

How do you store the burritos after you prep and cook them? Freezer?

1 Like

I wrap them in aluminum foil and fold the ends over to store in the freezer. I feel it’s easiest to work with and stores them nice and tight before freezing. When it’s time to make them, I’ll unwrap them and re-wrap in a paper towel then toss it in the microwave. Depending on the tortilla you use, you can just let them stay in there until cooked through (about 1:30-2:00). I’ve used other generic tortillas and I have to wet the paper towel or do short :30 bursts before unwrapping, rotating the burrito and then re-wrapping which is kind of a pain. The higher quality flour tortilla you use, the more likely it will hold up in the microwave.
