The Breakfast Thread

[JayKay PE]

.5 cup of greek yogurt w/ couple raspberries and granola.  Surprisingly like granola again, who knew?

 

[Booo]

Black tea.

 

[ChebyshevII PE PMP]

Scrambled egg with onion, tomato, turkey, and cheese. Black coffee.

 

[ChebyshevII PE PMP]

...and half of a maple bar made with potato flour.

 

[Supe]

Bagel with jalapeno cream cheese at 5:00, scrambled eggs at 7:30, black coffee.

 

[Fisherman504]

Starbucks Frappichino. The one you buy in bulk at Costco. Taste like straight rainbow magic.

 

[LyceeFruit PE]

fruit smoothie, blueberry scone 

 

[JayKay PE]

Protein shake - cookies & cream w/ water (I never got mixing protein powder w/ milk etc?).  Angry because Indiana water does not seem to mix as easily into the powder.

 

[Roarbark]

Eggs (bell pepper, garlic, onion) with quinoa, 1 spoonful of yam (I then decided it would be too much to eat, and put the rest in a tupper for lunch), and a medium size bowl of 3 kinds of cereal + cinnamon, almonds, chia seeds, banana chips.

Mashing food in my body for a long organized bike ride on Sunday. 

 

[JayKay PE]

Made yogurt w/ raspberries and granola...but forgot I had a protein shake in the office fridge.  So drinking shake and maybe have yogurt for lunch is chili doesn't satisfy?

 

[ChebyshevII PE PMP]

Scrambled egg with cheese, tomato, onion, and turkey, slice of sourdough toast, and black coffee. (Actually eating it at home for once...nice change)

I can only do certain protein powders with water. Most of them I do with almond milk (I don't really drink dairy milk). But mixing with milk will add extra protein and fat. Helping with satiety.

My best friend and I tested a number of different brands and flavors last spring since she was preparing for an AT thru hike. We had to find the best powder that mixed with water. So we got many one serving text packets for this. I don't recall what one she picked but I can tell you it wasn't the Bob's Red Mill or Cabot ones lol

I've always just done it with water since I'm trying to limit my dairy intake.  I love drinking milk straight, but mixed with powder...eh.  Clumpy water = fine.  Clumpy milk = Immediate turn off.

The powder I used to use was a peanut butter one, which I loved, but only came in a 1.5 lb container.  Went through it in a week and a half?  Got a big bag of cookies and cream (I hate chocolate flavoring, always chalky, and the vanilla is always too sweet).  I think I use MP Combat?  6 lb bag from Costco.  I've only gone through like half, since I'm off my challenge, but I still try to drink it at least once or twice a week to get back into the mindset.

Scrambled eggs with turkey, cheese, onion, and red pepper flakes. Black coffee.

 

[LyceeFruit PE]

coffee, mix of OJ & cranberry juice, 2 pancakes (1 chocolate chip, 1 blueberry) - it's our annual pancake breakfast

I go through a 3# bag of protein powder about every three months, and use a scoop provided by the company (one scoop is out serving). I put my protein powder (it's chocolate brownie flavored) in my workday breakfast smoothie, which is always the same and I have 5 days/week. I customize my blend with True Nutrition, and will never not do that again. They are the best! Totally customizable ingredients and flavors, if that's your thing. Pretty affordable too!

 

[Supe]

Smoked salmon with capers and onions, two chicken sausage links, scrambled eggs, a bite-sized veggie quiche, and black coffee (hotel buffet).

 

[ChebyshevII PE PMP]

2 scrambled eggs with leftover grilled bratwurst, peppers, and cheese. Black coffee.

Same as me!  One scoop = one serving, but my blender bottle is around 28 oz, so I usually end up making 2 servings in general for ease of mixing.  I haven't been doing shakes recently, since I bought a huge thing of yogurt from Costco for breakfasts and I wanted to get more settled working out again before I started shaking it right after workout for muscle repair.  Flavor isn't really a driver for me...as in, JK is a monster who will drink/eat anything if I made it without any concern for taste, age, texture, if it needs to be eaten.

Once I finish my yogurt/raspberries, I might start doing shakes as breakfast on days I have the gym (so I can have the shake after the workout as well).

But breakfast for today was: 0% plain greek yogurt + raspberries + granola.

 

[Supe]

Scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, black coffee, sugar free Red Bull.
