Oatmeal or porridge is a versatile option that can be loaded with any fruit, nuts, and spices you like. Savoury oatmeal is also delicious and there’s a good recipe on Oh She Glows. I also enjoy tofu scrambles, chia pudding, smoothies, healthy breakfast muffins with nut butter, or homemade granola with fresh fruits.
I would go for a good sugar and protein balance. For instance, a warm oatmeal with apple, good for blood sugar level. Plus an egg or peanut butter for protein. Sometimes it’s a simplified recipe of a regular salad or soup. My simple version of guacamole just have tomato, avocado, and lime juice. A mini Chinese spinach egg soup just need to boil the spinach and spinach egg in hot water for a few minutes and add sesame oil and salt. This one is from my childhood memory. I think whatever food I am familiar with not only serves an empty stomach but also makes a connection to myself.
I favor apples and oranges, or in the summertime, smoothies. In the winter I aim for toast with cheese and tea, or occasionally eggs.
My current favorite is banana pancakes: toss an egg, a banana and half a cup of oats in a blender and blend til combined. You can add berries, chocolate, peanut butter, whatever you want. But they’re great for some complex carbs and protein. I add apricot jam and cottage cheese on top of mine for some extra flavor and protein

Oatmeal with peanut butter, banana, cacao powder, coconut flakes, hemp seeds, and maybe a half cup of strawberries on the side. Tofu scramble with bell peppers, onions, celery, kale AND spinach, avocado, and potatoes on the side. A big smoothie with your favorite fruits, greens, nuts, and seeds. A huge salad with hummus as the dressing. I honestly eat spaghetti for breakfast a lot, with falafel. I hope you get this full answer, I think there’s a character limit 😩
One meal that I have really often is quinoa oatmeal. It’s about one part quinoa to three parts oatmeal - the quinoa just gives it that extra protein. It’s really good because I can have a different variation every single day - one day I might have raisins and maple syrup, another day strawberries and cinnamon. Nuts - especially pecans - are really good in it too. Anything you can put on toast, you can eat for breakfast. Jam, avocado, peanut butter, eggs. Keep a ton of whole wheat bread on hand and mix it up from day to day. If I don’t have my oatmeal, I’ll usually have peanut butter toast, just to make sure I’m getting a good amount of protein to start the day with. With toast, I’ll usually have fresh fruit and juice. For example, this morning I had a grapefruit, a banana, peanut butter toast, and orange juice.
First, eggs are the easiest, you can cooked them in different ways, poached, scrambled, fried, depend on how mich time you have. Then, a handful of nuts, a bowl of cereals, or two slices of whole grain toast would keep you from hunger. I’m a milk lover, so a glass of low fat milk in the breakfast would really made my day.
I usually have a smoothie with frozen fruit - mangoes or berries, plus vanilla protein powder and ground flaxseed or almond butter. I follow a 16 hour fast with this most weekday mornings or eat a banana, yogurt and walnuts or plain almonds with lots of black coffee! ☺️
Hi!😃 For me, I usually don’t have much appetite in the morning. So what I did was got myself a solid all-in-one meal replacement and vitamin shake under this reputable company called Vibrant Health. The shake is called Maximum Vibrance and you can buy it on iHerb for the best price and free shipping. I sometimes alternate between two other great trusted brands just for variety all of which I also buy in iHerb. They are Dragon Herbs Tonic Alchemy and Garden of Life Raw Meal. You can stir in some nut butters or coconut milk in them just to fill you up a little more. Sometimes I mash a banana in with a simple fork too for that extra energy kick.. so no need for messy blenders or extra cleaning. You can carry them with you in a tumbler or glass drinking bottle in case you’re in a rush. Hope this helps you greatly! Cheers to awesome health!🤗💖
