I’ve been eating a banana and an apple in the morning but switched the apple out for peanut butter. I like it better and it’s given me a boost in the morning.
It depends on what your body needs, however, to help digestion and absorption it is recommended to eat cooked and warm food (also drinking warm! water first thing in the morning)
It depends of food quality and calories. In the morning you should get mor calories to be nore energized rill all the day.
I would a bowl of oatmeal/cruesli/muesli with low fat milk or almond milk and fried eggs. If you want to build muscle add a scoop of protein powder to muesli.
It really depends on different factors. Are you on a specific diet? Are you working out high intensity? personally I eat eggs and bacon every morning when I’m on a keto diet. When not on a keto diet I will eat yogurt fruit and muesli. But I highly suggest you stay away from regular cereal and milk because you will see the high increase of blood sugar and then a crash about halfway through your morning.
Sure eggs, or other complete proteins like hardy cereal or oatmeal, add in some nuts and fruit, or throw all of that in a blender with some kale. But if time is an issue, like it is for many, a good bowl of cereal can get you places.
I will usually have two eggs for breakfast and feel satisfied and focused until it’s time for lunch. I have them scrambled with a little olive oil in a tortilla wrap and very little BBQ sauce, salt, pepper and sometimes hot sauce. However, if I’m planning on exercising I will have 1-2 bananas at least an hour before as they’re high in carbohydrate (cardio fuel) and potassium. Then I follow up with something protein rich such as lean meat or fish for brunch or lunch. I mix this up on weekends by having avocado on toast as it provides good fats. The first thing I have everyday when I wake up is a cup of water with Himalayan sea salt and squeeze of lemon, it wakes me within a minute even if in the groggiest state. Green tea comes later. Since having a regular breakfast I’ve felt fantastic in the morning and more able to concentrate at work, and less tired in the afternoon from not having too large a lunch.
Eggs are good with a healthy carb like whole grain bread or corn tortilla. but if you don’t like eggs, think outside the box -- brown rice with sauteed veggies and tofu, or even salad. my favorite, go-to breakfast is a protein smoothie. protein powder, oat milk, handful of rolled oats, and fruit. If a banana smoothie, I add peanut butter without sugar.
I LOVE breakfast foods. Eggs are the best, but I also love bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Fruit is good too. LOVE breakfast potatoes.
I like to have granola with soya milk, it’s quick and easy. Then some fruit. I do like to have scrambled egg too, bits that’s normally for dinner
