3 Easy Breakfasts to Try
Here are three brekfast options which present a great mixture of protein, healthy fat and fiber source!
An egg omelet (one egg + two egg whites, plus unlimited veggies of your choosing) paired with a cup of fruit and half of an English muffin topped with two thin slices of avocado
A cup of plain Greek yogurt topped with a cup of fresh berries and ¼ cup slivered almonds
Instant quinoa oatmeal made with skim or almond milk and topped with ½ cup of berries and ¼ cup of chopped pecans
Remember that you can choose any mixture of protein, healthy fat and fiber for breakfast so you can make a breakfast meal from dinner leftover!
What Not to Eat
Some breakfasts seem healthy but in fact they are not!! They lead to slow metabolism so be aware of them
Processed breakfast bars. They are high in sugar but low in protein and fiber which makes you hungry. If you're in a pinch, look for one with at least 2.5 grams of fiber and 10 grams of protein per serving.
Plain oatmeal. While it's not a terrible choice, you really should add some sort of healthy fat (like nuts) and some protein like almond milk in order to make sure you won't crash and burn later.
Fruit smoothies.When people consume fruit smoothie they are consuming mostly carbs. In order to make smoothie a healthy choice, you may add nuts for a healthy fat source, powder protein or Greek yogurt to boost protein intake and some greens to boost fiber intake.
