I started doing leftovers or healthy frozen foods. Easier that way. I also tote around hard boiled eggs but dont eat the yoke. Use trader joe's everything but the bagel seasoning but I don't have cardio issues.

I don’t like to eat much in the am but I do make a shake after ever

Almond milk (45cal)
Hemp/pea protein (80)-I use 1 scoop KOS chocolate
Frozen banana (100)
Ice cubes

I add chia and fiber ; sometimes maybe a spoon of almond butter ….sometimes I add espresso powder

I don’t do breakfast but tend to do brunch at noon-ish. 1 egg + 2 whites + 1 ounce provolone + 4.5 ounces roasted Turkey breast deli meat heated in skillet on small whole wheat wrap. 400 calories 56 grams protein

I do a lot of non breakfast foods. Leftovers from the night before. Roasted sweet potatoes.

Also overnight oats - I use soy milk, toasted oats, chia seeds, maple syrup. Top with fresh berries and nuts.

Yes to Raos shashuka! I also toss in a small bit of summer squash and zucchini.

What kind of toast are you eating?

1/2 cup brown rice - 125 cal
1/2 cup black beans - 115 cal
Plus whatever veggies, salsa, or seasonings you like

High-fiber bread with mashed white beans and arugula

Roasted sweet potatoes & black beans

Quesadilla with beans and spinach, or chicken

This is true. Billions of people in the world don't really have the concept of 'breakfast food' like westerners (I.e. sweet sugary junk etc).

Japanese breakfast would be something like natto, fruit and salad, or a peice of fish, rice, miso, salad, and fruit. Breakfast can literally just be another meal. It doesn't have to be 'breakfast food'.

I would do the high fiber bread with one or two tablespoons of peanut butter.
