When it comes to the most important meal of the day, or as I like to call it “the best meal of the day”, we all have different routines.
Some may have time to cook a full spread, while others need something ready within just a few minutes that still fits their goals.
While breakfast food is the best type of food (it’s a statistical fact!), I want everyone to have a few great options for easy breakfast recipes to start their day off with a win, no matter the time restraint.
Here are 6 different options that are all quick, convenient, and simple!
Everyone I know likes a good ol' classic egg, meat, and cheese breakfast sandwich. Luckily, instead of stopping at a drive-thru, you can whip one up very quickly at home.
1 English Muffin
2 Eggs
1 Slice Low-Fat Cheese
1. Toast the English Muffin
2. Cook eggs (pick your own desired style ... I prefer over-easy)
3. Place cheese and egg on English muffin
4. ENJOY!

• Add ketchup or hot sauce (yes, ketchup goes on eggs)
• Jelly the English muffin before putting sandwich together
• Drizzle syrup onto the sandwich
• Throw on a slice or two of turkey bacon for extra protein
These are a fantastic option for the mornings when time is the issue. Basically, if you pre-make a batch of these and store them in the fridge, you can warm them up in seconds. You will have a delicious and well-balanced meal in minutes!
8 Whole Eggs
1 Cup Egg Whites
1/3 Cup of Peppers, Onions, and Mushrooms
2-3 slices Turkey Bacon
1. Preheat the oven to 350℉.
2. Mix together the whole eggs and egg whites.
3. Chop the peppers, onions, mushrooms, and turkey bacon.
4. Add veggies and meat to the eggs.
5. Evenly fill each muffin tin with the mixture (after spraying non-stick spray).
6. Cook in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes until the egg is cooked all the way through.
7. Serve immediately while warm or store in the fridge in an airtight container to enjoy later.
*To reheat, place the egg on a plate and heat in the microwave for a few seconds. Make sure that you don't overcook the egg white bites so they don't "pop" and explode all over the inside of your microwave (sadly, I have made that mistake).

• Add hot sauce, salsa, or ketchup before eating
• Throw 1/4 slice of cheese on top when they first come out of the oven
• Drizzle syrup on the cups
• Replace the bacon with ham or even small pieces of chicken
• Add spinach or diced tomatoes if you're looking for more veggies with your eggs
This is the most convenient option when it comes to time and simplicity. It is an effective breakfast option, but once you try it ... you may even sneak it in as a snack throughout the day like I do! Plus, the versatility of being able to change flavors and toppings makes this a go-to for me.
1/2 cup Oatmeal
1 scoop Level-1
1/4 cup fruit
1. Cook oatmeal in the microwave for 1-2 minutes
2. Stir in the scoop of protein powder first, then fruit
3. That's it! It's quick, simple, convenient, and tasty! (It's also probably the easiest out of this list of "easy breakfast recipes" too).

Let’s say you need something that you can just grab and go. That's where this recipe comes in. Obviously, you can sit down and eat it, but if your morning is chaotic, this is a delicious option to have ready in the fridge.
The best part, it's versatile! You can always switch out the berries for other fruit or change the flavor of protein powder.
1/2 cup milk

4. Top with mixed berries and serve
5. Place in the fridge for a few hours or overnight (as outlined in the name "overnight oats")

I am going to settle the pancake vs waffle debate right now ... waffles are better! 😉
Now, this recipe may take a little more time than some of the other recipes, BUT you can actually make extra waffles and freeze them for later!
I use these as a quick high-protein frozen waffle replacement and toast them to reheat or microwave will work as well! So, if that sounds good, you can double, triple, or make as many servings as you want for later!
1/3 cup of Kodiak Cakes Waffle Mix
1 scoop of Red Velvet Cake Level-1
1/4 to 1/2 cup of water or so (to make the batter the same consistency as ketchup)
1/4 tbsp of olive oil or avocado oil
1. Add all ingredients into a bowl, and stir until fully-mixed and there are no clumps.
2. Then, spray your waffle maker with cooking spray and pour the batter in.
3. Cook the waffles and enjoy!
Note: You CAN also use this recipe for pancakes, if that's what you prefer.

• Syrup (either Sugar-Free or Regular ... whichever fits your nutrition plan better)
• Fruit of choice, I prefer Blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or bananas
• A couple of tablespoons of whipped cream
• Top with a little spread of butter

Any of these recipes are scalable, and can be adjusted based on your nutritional needs!
Being such a passionate breakfast lover ... these easy breakfast recipes still give me that sense of enjoyment, while starting my day off with a win!
