I precut veggies on the weekend, for the week. Then it only takes about 5 min to fry everything up in the morning. Then I can gobble it down bbn on the road or enjoy it at the table as time allows.

I usually have porridge or eggs which don’t more than 10 minutes to prepare, but I like to enjoy a leisurely breakfast and ease into my day.

Very little in the morning. I make egg muffins beforehand and just microwave them in the morning. I do make coffee and pack my lunch, which is also pre-prepared, for a total of probably 10 minutes. I like making things quick in the morning because I have the terrible habit of hitting the snooze button too many times, and if I’m running late I’ll just give up on any task that takes more than a few minutes.

I started the habit by going shopping one day before and equipping myself with stuffs I’d need for the next morning breakfast: corn flakes, muesli, full cream milk, frozen yoghurt, banana, herbal teas...which do not require a long time to prepare.

I double up on as much as I can. My regular breakfast is either an egg pesto avocado toast with a fruit or oatmeal with a fruit added. So I start my toast or water w/ fruit as I get in my shower. When I come out if I’m having oatmeal I start the oats. Stretch while the oats come to boil. Let them sit while I dress. If it is toast then I dress and go fix my mash (oatmeal. This is where I transfer to a mug). I eat it in the car on my way to work.

Brekky is important as a part of my day but I don’t like to eat until later in the morning so I take it to work. Which means the night before I need to prep it.

Very little, mornings are almost always a struggle and I find it hard to manage more than a drink. Plus trying to stay under 1200 a day and breakfast when not hungry dosent seem to help but uses calories

Prepping is usually around 10min as I always eat oats; quick easy and nutritious. I make sure to spend at least 20min eating though as I have intermittent digestive issues.

Ah, breakfast. About twice a week I make up an overnight oats bowl the night before, all ready by the morning. A protein shake or smoothie 3 times a week and two days I have something like a poached egg, rye sourdough toast and greens or avocado. So that’s 10 mins of prep.

About 10 minutes each morning. It helps to know what you will be having in the morning and preparing for it the night before. Make sure it’s simple and healthy if you are short on time, or wake up extra early and enjoy preparing a well thought out masterpiece to enjoy.
