This past week, Ive realized that preparation is one of my biggest obstacles. When I dont prepare my lunches for work the night before (or on Sunday), I am scrambling in the morning trying to get a good meal together. I can usually take care of lunch. Ive been making pots of lentil or split pea soup with lots of fresh veggies & chia seeds. Easy enough to put in a container to reheat. Breakfast is a big challenge. Ive been trying to increase my calories/protein for breakfast, but it is always harder for me to quickly grab the right food. My go to's are: oatmeal w/honey & sometimes frozen blueberries on top, bread w/peanut butter & banana, grapenuts & milk. I want to incorporate more eggs, but it requires prep time that I cant do on weekday mornings. Usually, I am so focused on what I am going to eat for lunch, breakfast often gets excluded.
My goal this week is to focus on preparing breakfast primarily.
I am going to prep scrambled/boiled eggs for my breakfast this week, along with more fruit/veggies. I need to erase from my mind that fruit is a breakfast food and veggies are for lunch/dinner.
Green peppers, zucchini, spinach!! Sounds like the beginning of an awesome omelette to me!!
