Any REALLY good, really quick breakfast recipes? I'm kind of picky so please read below.?

Question

I'm diabetic and don't do well with sugars first thing in the morning, no cereal, donuts, or fruit. Also, a grab and go or microwaved breakfast would be great. I've been eating breakfast burritos at different fast food places which I love, but they're too expensive and take too long to cook at home. When I do eat breakfast at home it's usually leftovers from supper the night before. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Ohhhhhh......I am finding lots of goodies here :)

Yesterday, I finally tried out the Zip-Lock omelet recipe, and the final result was soooooo yummy. I detest dry omelets, but the way these are made, the steam has no where to go, so you are left with a very moist omelet.

First thing you do is make sure you have a quart size freezer zip-lock bag, two eggs, and stuff to go into your omelet...Oh, and a pot big enough to boil your freezer bag is a necessity too.

Assemble all the stuff you want in your omelet.

Fill your pot with water, and let it start boiling.

Open the freezer bag, crack the two eggs into the bag, shake it up a bit.

Add the ingredients, and shake them up too.

Make sure all the air is out of the bag

When the water is boiling, put the bag into it, and allow it to cook for 13 minutes. Warning, do not the Freezer Bag to droop down and rest on the\ outside edge of the pot. Keep all the bag in the water..it will be fine there. Outside the pot, the bag will melt and smell bad :(

After 13 minutes, take the bag out of the water, open the bag, and roll the omelet out onto a plate.

That easy. That quick. That fool proof.

You can also assemble the bags, and freeze them until you need them. Cooking time may vary then....I need to experiment :)

I am including the link to the site where I heard about this, so you can read up on it.

Grin. I also need to write to the author and thank her/him :)

This is what I do because time is never on my side but I am always starving in the morning Get those Egg White Cartons ~ I use Kroger brand but Egg Beaters makes them Pour some in a plastic or coffee cup (don't fill it more than 3/4 full of all liquid I add some salsa Microwave for a couple of mins ~ see consistency and add some cheese if you would like then cook additional if nec. Stir it up like scrambled eggs You will have to play w/ the time a bit since microwaves are different Sometimes I throw in veggies or some lunch meat I love it and it is less then 10 to prepare I also just make sandwiches the night before to have for in the morning they are healthy and well balanced Oh yeah, your smoothie While you wait for your egg just take another plastic cup and put in a couple of tablespoons of vanilla yogurt or low carb/no sugar ice cream, ad some fat free milk a large splash, throw in some blueberries &/or raspberries take your spoon and mix it up to the consistency you desire.

Answer 4

Throw a muffin/toast/ other bread item in the toaster. At the same time, crack an egg in a microwave safe bowl. add a splash of milk. Stir. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, then another 30 seconds - egg should be cooked, if not add another 30 seconds. Put a piece of cheese on top and put on whatever you toasted. This also works as a wrap, just heat the wrap in the microwave for 15-30 seconds. You can add meat if you want, but I usually don't. Pretty good stuff!

Answer 6

Cottage cheese with walnuts or almonds.

whole grain toast with natural peanut butter (no added oils, or sugars)

whole grain crackers with cheese.

Everything else I can think of that is easy is fruit! I can see how it would be hard to come up with some good breakfast ideas without sugar. They do make these little croissant breakfast sandwiches in the frozen food aisle of the grocery store. I don't remember the brand but they only take 1 minute in the microwave and are really good.

Answer 7

Here's the typical breakfast we have in Spain:

take a roll (not a sweet roll - baguette french or italian type bread is best). Take a very ripe tomato, cut in half and rub on each half of the roll...all the juice and pulp should be on your bread, throw the rest away. Drizzle a little olive oil over it, and a pinch of salt . Eat as is, or add a slice of cheese or ham (prosciutto or serrano ham is best, but any ham or even turkey cold cuts are nice) Or you can put a little can of tuna fish on it with the oil in the can.
Also, if you like, you can toast the bread a little before adding the tomato...the toasty smell gives you a great wallop in the morning!

I'm diabetic myself, so I avoid sweets too.

Answer 8

Here's two bagel recipes I really like

Generally a plain bagel works best, toasted or not, your choice
Crack an egg into a teacup saucer, and cover it with another saucer. Microwave for 1 minute. Slice the bagel and place a slice of deli ham on the bottom, when the egg is done, put it on the ham, put a slice of american cheese on the ham. Salt and pepper to taste, cover with the other half of the bagel


This one is "open face"
Again, using a plain bagel, this time toasted is best. Shmear the bagel with cream cheese, add a thin slice of red onion and a slice of tomato, season with salt, pepper, and a dash of celery salt.

Answer 9

If you preheat the oven to 375 when you first get up, you can have a breakfast quesadilla ready within about 15 minutes. Use whatever cheese you like (I usually use jack but I love to add some cotija if I have it) and add whatever you have on hand that's compatible. Black beans are tasty and healthy; other options are salsa, leftover vegetables, and/or leftover cooked chicken. (So your supper leftovers don't necessarily have to go to waste!) Wrap it loosely in foil and stick it in the oven for 5-10 minutes. Practically "grab-and-go" but a lot less expensive, healthier, and better-tasting than fast food.

Answer 10

well, i was gonna tell you about my yummy breakfast burritos...
i guess you could make them the night before ~ scrambled eggs, real cheese, and tomatoes. top with a tad of salsa if you want.
My very favorite breakfast though is real quick and good for you. I open a thing of yogurt (vanilla or coconut creme pie flavor), throw in a handful of almonds and a handful of berries. But, you can leave the berries off.
