What about this for breakfast?

[Anonymous]

Too much sugar.

This, it'd a bowl of sugar (albeit natural sugar) and fat (nuts). You need protein, and something with fiber

Walnuts have protein and healthy fats.


I am not eating animal products and am eating on the model of king, prince, pauper - most calories at breakfast, fewer at lunch, light supper.

This is your highest calorie meal??? What do lunch and dinner look like?

I agree that I'd need more protein, but there is plenty of fiber in what she described.

Tofu scramble

Rainbow Life Kitchen's edamame toast

Peanut butter sandwich on Ezekiel or Dave's Killer Bread

Turn that fruit into a smoothie and add chia and/or flax and protein powder or soy yogurt

How about avocado for healthy satiating fats?

That's too much food. Yikes. How about just an apple with a small handful ~5 walnuts?

This isn’t far off from how I eat, both in content and the model.

Walnuts have minimal protein though. I eat a toasted Ezekiel English muffin with almond butter (probably over a serving since I love it so much) and about 2 cups or so berries. That would be about 18 grams protein, probably 600 calories.

Agreed. Even though your suggestion is "healthy," it's a LOT of fruit, and I'd still be hungry an hour later. Take a little fruit away and add protein.

Not granola -- that's more sugar and carbs. I am in NO WAY an anti-sugar person, but I'd STILL be hungry if I swapped in granola.

Not really unhealthy but does this keep you full? I need mostly protein in the morning. For 500 calories I can have a breakfast sandwich. For half the calories I can have a protein bar or some full fat greek yogurt with extra protein powder, and all of those will satiate me for a while. Fruit and nuts will last me an hour.

nuts have very little protein for the amount of calories. 1/4 c of walnuts only has 4.5g which is nothing.

seems like a lot of calories for a breakfast that would leave me hungry an hour later, but everyone is different. If you eat this and feel full and satisfied until lunch then go for it.

Aim for at least 25 g of protein at each meal, it will help you feel full. Add Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, etc

I’d love to see what else you eat during the day if this is breakfast.

Too much fruit too filling for me. Not enough protein or fermented foods. I'd do:

6 oz plain whole milk yoghurt
1 apple chopped on top or any other fruit. Maybe half banana and sprinkle blue berries
Scoop walnuts
