I’ve started to view food as just fuel, so I don’t worry as much about it being boring. I rotate through 3 or 4 different things for breakfast so that I don’t turn myself from any one thing in particular.
Search the web for healthy breakfast choices. Make a list and purchase the ingredients and then make up as much as I can in little bins to bring to work
Actually I know what I’d like to eat for breakfast for example I like to eat cheese with fresh bread and nice grapes or or corn flakes with a little bit warm milk for some days I prefer to eat jam with fresh bread and butter so I know what I like to eat and in the morningchoose what I prefer
I find eggs can be made in so many different ways that you can have a different breakfast every day. I plan out all my meals before I do my food shopping and so plan a different breakfast for each day. Today I am having smoked salmon and soft cheese on wholemeal toast with a little spinach. Yesterday I had overnight oats. Tomorrow I will have fruit and Yogurt, I never get bored with food because I eat so many different things.
I don’t eat breakfast. I only eat two meals a day. Which means I can have breakfast foods or lunch foods as my first meal. Lots of variety that way.
I make sure the fridge and freezer are full of different proteins I can use like avocado, strawberries, mixed berries, yogurt. The pantry also has lots of grains and nuts. Can make any combo with this :)
Go through the health food Isle of the Super market and pick up any of the powders, nuts, berries or for a cheaper option go for some frozen berries or fruit that is in season. 🍜 You can also see what other cultures have for brekkie and try it out
Who says you have to eat the same thing every day? I follow a pretty strict diet and meal plan and even then I don’t eat the exact same thing every day—the basics are the same, but they are prepared and flavored differently, which provides plenty of variation. My breakfasts consist of either three eggs or fruit. Every other day I switch between an egg breakfast and a fruit breakfast, but the schedule is the same from week to week. So I have variety, but also don’t have to decide because each day is already assigned a specific breakfast. I just check my schedule each morning and make what it tells me. Also, each thing is prepared differently, so it has a completely different combination of flavors and textures—this way nothing gets old. One day is a baked omelette, one is hard boiled eggs, one is vegetable eggs, and one is an egg sandwich. Same with the fruit—one day is a banana bowl smoothie, one is apples and yogurt, the other is yogurt with a mix of fruit. It’s all healthy and delicious, and never feels old.
Make sure you don’t eat the same thing. I’m the same way, I get bored of the same thing so I’m more mindful to not repeat so often. Make it colorful is my biggest priority on my breakfast. Different colored peppers, yellow eggs or oatmeal with fruit. It doesn’t have to be the same.
I try to have a few breakfast items that I can mix up. So I have cans of baked beans and cereal in the cupboard and switch between them. Adding different fruits is also useful; depending what’s in season, one day I’ll Have blueberries on my cereal, another day I’ll have banana. Sharing food with my housemates keeps the cost down.
