Thread: Breakfast ideas

I always have this problem of knowing what to have in the morning! I dont like eating loads as I have to have my breakfast around 6:45 to get to work (way to early to eat) so i normally have something quick like toast, weetabix or fruit. Any other quick brekki ideas anyone?

Co op whole meal pitta (carefully toasted to fluff it up to split open) 2 eggs beaten with a splash of milk, a chopped spring onion if desired mixed in, then microwaved in the same bowl for 2 minutes until set, then popped in the split pitta, I add a one slice of emental at 11gms, not even a hex a amount. Hot, filling and delicious.

U can buy trays for the microwave u can cook bacon in 3 minutes. A plastic tray u can make poached egg in the microwave in 30 seconds and then just toast ur bread there's a cooked breakfast done in 3 and half minutes

This is a weekend breakfast cos it takes a bit of time but it's so good!

Western Omelet Potato Skins | Skinnytaste - made it this morning, skipped the milk and cheese and it was delicious.

The whole blog is full of amazing recipes too, the lady who runs is is a WW girl but there are lots of recipes that are very SW friendly (or can be easily adapted.)

What can you do for Breakfast using scan bran? Any ideas greatfully received

SCAN BRAN CHERRY BAKEWELL

5 scan bran
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 fat free cherry yogurt ( muller light etc )
4 tbsp sweetener
4 capfuls almond essence
2 eggs

Same way as other scan bran cakes ( ie soak, mash, mix, cook ) and bake for 20min @ 180C

5 1/2 syns the lot or 1/2 syn + 1 HeB

I like to vary my breakfasts if I'm hungry I'll have cooked and if not I'll have weetabix with banana and skimmed milk.

My favourite cooked breakfasts are:

1. Bacon, 2 fried eggs, beans, mushrooms, tomatoes and wholemeal toast (HEB) with worcester sauce
2. Spanish Omelette - microwave a cubed potato for 7 minutes and then fry light in a pan with mushrooms, tomatoes and onion (with salt/pepper + mixed herbs) - then make a 3 egg omelette and add the fried mixture
3. Bacon + tomatoes on toast
4. Ham / Eggs and beans

If I want to save my HEB for a sandwich at lunch I will use fried potato instead of toast.

This is my new favourite...

Grapenut Pudding
2 servings - each 1/2 HEB and 1/3 HEA

35g Grapenut cereal
250ml skimmed milk
1 - 1 1/2 Tablespoons Truvia
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
Pinch salt
Grated nutmeg or cinnamon

Heat up milk in microwave until hot (around 2 minutes). Pour over cereal and let stand five minutes. Beat together egg, salt, vanilla and Truvia. Slowly pour about half of the milk mixture into the egg mixture, beating as you go (this will warm up the eggs and prevent them from scrambling), then mix in the rest.

Pour into to large individual ramekins or small cereal bowls and sprinkle with nutmeg or cinnamon. Put the bowls in a larger pan with warm water in it up to 1/2 way up the sides of the bowls Bake for around 30-40 minutes in a 170C oven until a little wobbly in the centre.

I prefer these room temperature or cold. Yum.

So, I'm new to this website but I wondered if anyone had any good idea's about breakfast? I'm sick of getting up in the morning and taking forever wondering what to have, I'm usually stuck with the same old cereals or poached eggs on toast. I really want to try new things... Anyone know anything? Thanks

Hello there, I'm new to slimming world as well, loving it so far, I've just had eggy bread (Healthy extra B), bacon, mushroom & onion.. It was lovely & really filling ...

i love hot weetabix, big fruit salads with different yoghurts, porridge, omelettes

It's my 3rd time at doing Slimming World.. Gonna stick to it now! :-) Ooh that sounds lovely! Ill have to try that out

I'm having syn free rice pudding (made with sweetener and water - a bit less than the amount of milk you would use). Mix with muller light and berries.

Scrambled eggs made with a drop of milk from HEA and some quark and smoked salmon. Either have tinned tomatoes or follow with fruit. Yum!

My fav breakfast is 3 or 4 of those huge flat mushrooms grilled with a splash of Worcester sauce while grilling , with some lean bacon and a poached egg with a side of plum tomatoes , so filling !!!
