What did you eat for breakfast today?

[simonrest]

Over the holiday break I'm going to experiment with birhcer style muesli - oats soaked in coconut water with either chobani or whey mixed in for protein.

I'm currently chewing through this. the proportions are all wrong: the amount of chobani required to hit my protein target is too much for the amount of oats. It's also bland as fuck, even with a spoon of honey and some blueberries. Maybe I need to do it with flavoured chobani, but then that gets more expensive

The flavoured chobani is too high in carbs for me most of the time. But I feel ya; with muesli and stuff I normally put 75-100g max of chobani on top, a full 170g serve is definitely too much. Which might get you to 16-17g of protein if you're lucky, including what's in the muesli and milk.

Sometimes I also add a scoop of these for an easy 10g: https://au.myprotein.com/sports-nutriti ... 60385.html

What I used to do was overnight oats, with some egg whites and plain chobani - that's one easy way.

Or what is also quite nice is these: https://www.bulknutrients.com.au/produc ... -oats.html - sometimes I'll have a serve of these with some berries, and a serve of Forme (no fat) flavoured yoghurt with coffee. That nets me 30ish grams of protein and a reasonable amount of carbs with maybe 5g fat (I use no fat milk as well).

The coolest thing about greek yogurt, is it is quite high in leucine.
i don't depend on it for many grams of protein, but i'll use 1/4 or 1/3 cup in my shakes now and then.
5.5 and 7 grams protein respectively with the brand i use.

Yeah I believed that to be the case; it's also mostly casein - I rely on it quite a bit. Have at least one serve every day, often two.

One of my nightly go-to supper snacks is a protein muffin (have been buying Flapjacked ones cheap lately) with a serve of greek yoghurt, berries, and various other toppings. Nom nom. I always eat lots of other stuff with it too though since I am a macro hoarder and usually have lots left.

Haha, I put 2 full 170g tubs on to of 100g oats soaked in 125ml coconut water. It was sizable

[Wilhelm]

Tuna melt! One of my new favorite breakfasts.

4 free range eggs, 1 can chunk white albacore, 2 oz extra sharp white cheddar. cooked in 2 Tbsp coconut oil.
64 grams protein and no whey to drink.

No wonder the ratios were out of whack

Think oats / muesli are something like a 40g serve for me. So 40g of cereal and 75-100g Chobani. But I usually have something else with it.

[ChasingCurls69]

3 cups of froot loops with marshmallows, 1 cup of milk for the cereal and a shake with 2 cups of milk and two scoops of whey. Breakfast cereal is the master race carb source.

I love breakfast cereal. It's what I miss most on this cut.

Today: 4 eggs, Metamucil, a pitiful serving of cheerios w skim fairlife.

Can't wait to reverse. Breakfast will look the same, except a massive bowl of lucky charms with whole milk.

[AaronM]

2 cups lucky charms, lactaid, 1oz cream, 1.5 scoops whey protein.

[Wilhelm]

Thankfully whey is a thing.
Quite often i just can't handle meat, eggs and cheese early in the day.

Whey isolate
Peanut butter
Whole milk ricotta
Raw cacao powder
Mct oil

[slowmotion]

I'm running low on whey, and have only leftovers in the fridge. So breakfast today was only a piece of cheese and some milk. And coffee, black.

[KyleSchuant]

Pancakes.

I've eaten the exact same breakfast every day for months.

First thing in the morning is a great time to follow a well-worn routine, rather than being experimental.

[PapaSmurf]

5 eggs scrambled with jalapenos
2 packs instant apple cinnamon oatmeal
pour over coffee

@cgeorg That looks scrumptious!

I had 1.5 scoops of whey in water... early morning shift and I hate eating early.
