I consider a great breakfast one that will keep your blood sugar balanced, resulting in good energy and nutrient-dense nutrition for your cells.
Including a good source of protein, complex carbohdyrates and a small amount of good fat at every breakfast will accomplish that goal.
Protein suggestions: omega-3 eggs, egg whites, plain yogurt, Greek yogurt, low-fat cottage cheese, low-fat cheese, soy milk and protein powders.
Complex carbohdrates can be starchy (grains, cereals or root vegetables) or non-starchy (vegetables and fruit).
Good fats include ground flaxseed, flax oil, avocado, raw nuts and seeds or olive oil..
A few combination suggestions:
– eggs toast sauteed vegetables drizzle of olive oil
– Yogurt berries granola with nuts and seeds
– Protein shake with 1/4 avocado, berries, whey protein and water (add stevia to sweeten if desired)
– Oatmeal berries drizzled with flax oil soy milk
– Whole grain pancakes with added ground flaxseed topped with fresh fruit and Greek yogurt
– Cottage cheese fresh fruit 1 slice whole grain toast and organic peanut butter

Cottage cheese blintzes (use lemon zest and splenda – or whatever sweetener you prefer- to liven-up the flavor of the cheese filling).
