Easiest / Quickest Breakfast you can think of

pringlesnap · 30/01/2025 20:37

My mornings are always a rush between school drop off and getting to work on time. I usually grab a Trek bar or Grenade bar to hold me over until lunch, but realise all the processed junk can't possibly be good for me!

Am I delusional to think there may a product like this, that's just grab and go, without all the negative health implications??

If it's impossible, what else can I grab quickly in the mornings? (I hate oatmeal and yogurt which doesn't help!)

Thanks for any advice!

An apple?

MadameSzyszkoBohusz · 30/01/2025 20:38

Greek yoghurt with some berries chucked in.

A banana
homemade flapjack

NormasArse · 30/01/2025 20:42

I’d take an egg on toast over a bar. Takes about 3 minutes to cook!

RejoiceandSing · 30/01/2025 20:42

Smoothies, make the base and freeze it in ice cube trays. The night before, put a few cubes in a bottle and pour over milk, put it in the fridge and it's mostly defrosted ready to drink on the way out.

Are you talking about something you take to work with you and just eat at work or something you eat on the way to work in the car or something?

You dont have to eat what people call 'breakfast items', you can have anything, soup, sandwich, ready cooked sausages.

Can you batch cook things like lentils or tarka dhal and take the frozen pot to work and defrost and eat once there? I eat tarka dhal a lot for breakfast

Can I recommend 16/8? You don't need to think of anything until lunchtime.

GivingUpFinally · 30/01/2025 20:47

Get a sistema yoghurt/breakfast pot. It even comes with a travel spoon.

Greek yoghurt, berries, and granola.

Overnight oats. Takes less than mins to make the night before, and it's super filling.

Fresh fruit, grab and go

Make boiled eggs the night before. Not recommended to eat during ypur commute to Waterloo.

Boiled egg
Egg muffins

Banana spread with peanut butter

coodawoodashooda · 30/01/2025 21:23

AwakeNotThruChoice · 30/01/2025 21:26

Slice of granery bread. Spread with peanut butter, and a sliced tomato. Folded in half. Don’t even need to cut it.

Other fillings- cream cheese or peanut butter and low sugar jam! Etc.

Mulledjuice · 30/01/2025 21:27

To be eaten out of hand:
Homemade porridge bars
Mini breakfast muffins/frittatas (loads of recipes out there)
Toast and peanut butter + banana
Egg sandwich

Do you need breakfast or are you eating it out of habit? I've been doing 16/8 fasting for the last few months (only eating between 12pm and 8pm). I just drink black coffee at breakfast time and I'm finding that I really don't miss not eating breakfast. I've got lots more energy and I'm not battling blood sugar ups and downs and craving snacks all morning.

Mydahliasareshit · 30/01/2025 21:53

I could bang on about overnight oats and the like, which are of course good for you.

But it's January, so maybe you want a mini pork pie zapped in the micro for a few seconds to take the chill off😀

See you through till lunch easily.

PullTheBricksDown · 30/01/2025 21:55

Banana. Easiest thing in the world.

Georgyporky · 31/01/2025 10:23

Kingofthetyrantlizards · 31/01/2025 17:35

Depending on what you mean by 'on the go', I take a pot with wheatabix, berries and milk into the office, sometimes I add a spoonful of peanut butter too - make it up the night before and eat at my desk (I leave at 6:45 on office days and not hungry enough to eat before I go)

Onlyvisiting · 31/01/2025 17:37

Toast, smear jam/marmalade/peanut butter on and eat as you walk!
Or bread if you want less crumbs!

nameXname · 31/01/2025 17:49

An apple (as suggested above) plus a slice or two of 'naice' cheese. Something like Emmenthal or (well aged) Gouda. Very sustaining. Or some cottage cheese/small pot of live yoghurt and a satsuma or similar. All easy and inoffensive to eat on the train if you don't have time before you leave.

Oppenovverandout · 31/01/2025 17:50

Fruit.

876543A · 02/02/2025 16:44

Very quick to make eggs - I have it down to an art in the morning. Frying pan on to warm up while your putting the bread in toaster and kettle on for coffee, crack eggs, salted butter in pan (I cook them in butter so that I save time not having to spread butter on the toast, and use salted butter so I don't have to faff about with seasoning), eggs into the hot pan, quick stir around, fetch the toast, pour coffee, tip eggs on toast and eat.

buffyfaithspikeangel · 02/02/2025 16:47

I have a smoothie and an apple
Smoothie - frozen berries, protein powder, milk

WildFlowerBees · 02/02/2025 17:30

One of these, it has compartments at the top.

Make a mix of Greek yogurt with honey/peanut butter. Add a mix of seeds, berries and granola to the compartments. When you're ready to eat it chuck it all in.
