One of the first questions I get when someone is starting a new diet is “What am I going to eat for breakfast?” So, I’ve tackled that question for you here. This is a round up of recipes, ideas and inspiration for healthy breakfasts for an entire week.
With these ideas for inspiration, you can create a menu that will keep your palate happy while maintaining your healthy diet! This round-up is high in protein to give you a boost of energy to get through the day. All of the recipes are WW-Freestyle friendly, and I have included the point values with each to make your life easier!
Some ingredients that will make your breakfast life so much nicer are: Kodiak PowerCake mix, Thomas Multigrain English Muffins, PB2, and Lox (aka Smoked Salmon). I use these ingredients heavily in my breakfast dishes. Also note, none of the presented breakfasts use any fake sugar or highly processed ingredients; just good, fresh, real food!
Day 1-Powercakes
Let’s start the week off right with Powercakes. Mix 2 cups of Kodiak PowerCake mix with 2 eggs and 2 cups water. Whisk well. Using spray oil on a non-stick pan, cook ¼ cup of batter per pancake. When the edges look dry, flip. While those are cooking, take 2 TBS of PB2 (or other powdered peanut butter) and mix with 3-½ teaspoon water. Once the pancakes are ready, stack up 3 pancakes. Top with sliced banana and drizzle with the peanut butter sauce. Top it off with some Fat-free Reddi Wip if you like.
One serving as described is 5 FSP.
Day 2- LEO with Berries and Yogurt
Saute lox (smoked salmon), diced onion and cherry tomatoes with some spray oil until the tomatoes start to burst. Then, add in 2 eggs scrambled. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well with the spatula until the eggs are cooked through. Serve with ¼ cup of plain, nonfat Greek yogurt and a pile of fresh berries. Tip: If you have difficulty tolerating plain yogurt, even with the berries, then mix in 1 teaspoon of honey for 1 FSP.
One serving as described is 0 FSP.
Day 3-Classic Shortstack
Mix 2 Cups of Kodiak PowerCakes Mix with 2 eggs and 2 cups of water. Cook ¼ cup of batter per pancake in a non-stick skillet with spray oil. When the edges look dry, flip. Now, fry 1-2 eggs with salt and pepper to taste. Stack 2 pancakes and top with fried egg.
One serving as described is 2 FSP.
Day 4-Bananacakes
Make up a batch of healthy, paleo, gluten-free Bananacakes. Recipe here. I find them to be very filling. Serve two up with fresh berries and a little Fat-free Reddi Wip for a delicious breakfast packed with energy.
One serving as described is 0 FSP.
Day 5-Rise and Shine Sandwich
Whip up one of these easy and delicious breakfast sandwiches, reminiscent of a bacon, egg and cheese but without pork or all the fat. Recipe here. Be sure to use the Thomas Multigrain English Muffins and your favorite thin-sliced cheese.
One serving as described is 5 FSP.
Day 6-Cinnamon PowerCakes
Mix 2 cups of Kodiak PowerCake mix with 2 Eggs, 1 teaspoon Cinnamon, and 2 Cups Water. Whisk well. Using spray oil on a non-stick pan, cook ¼ cup of batter per pancake. When the edges look dry, flip. Stack up 3 pancakes and top with fresh berries and a swirl of Fat-free Reddi Wip for a tasty morning treat!
One serving as described is 4 FSP.
Day 7-Mexican Scramble
Scramble 2 eggs with 2 TBS of Salsa. Cook in a non-stick skillet with spray oil. Continuously scrape the pan as they cook until the eggs cook through. Top with a thin-cut slice of cheese and serve with a tortilla. A standard taco-size tortilla is 3 points, but you can get special tortillas that are less.
One serving as described is 5 FSP.
