Breakfast Foods - Quick And Easy

I need some help. I have fallen victim to being bad and eating tons of food I am allergic to and have made a vow to stop immediatly because I am severly damaging my body.

Anyway my first problem is that I need some breakfast food variety. I work M-F and of course have the hardest time rolling out of bed so I do not have a whole lot of time to prepare something. I do have a microwave, fridge/freezer at work so I could do something there. I know about cerials but I was trying to think of other alternatives so I turn to you.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance

Vans waffles are great and easy in the toaster. Hard boilded eggs the night before. Tater tots with the egg in the morning in the toaster oven, just put in before you shower and get out when about to leave. Fruity Pebbles. Coffee. OJ. Omlett in the microwave: take 2 eggs and some shredded cheese and meat or whatever and put in a bowl in micro for 45 seconds, stir 1/2 way through. to easy!

I do peanut butter and rice cakes, or scrambled eggs (5 min) and rice cakes fairly often. Sometimes I'll make quinoa flakes in the microwave with flax meal (3 min). And sometimes, I just have leftovers - stirfry, steak, etc. :)

Get a pancake mix and make up a batch on the weekend and when they are cool lay them flat edges just touching in a large ziplock and put it in the freezer. In the am just put however many you want on a plate and microwave it. You can also put them in a microwavable container, even with a little syrup or jam on, with some fully cooked ham or sausages and warm up at work or wherever, toss in some frozen fruit maybe. Add a milk or alternative drink box.

Vanilla whey protein powder, water/juice, frozen fruit ... just blend. :) Some whey protein is nasty ... but I like BioChem vanilla ... it's smooth.

I like Thai Kitchen soup (like imitation ramen noodles). I make those at work. Or veggie broth. I'm usually not that hungry in the morning so I don't eat and then have half my lunch around 10:30am.

Van waffles are really good, my favorites are the apple cinnamon and flax. I wanted to second the mention of quinoa flakes too.....these are on of my staples lately, b/c they are so easy on the stomach. They cook in 90 seconds on the stove, then I add butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and flax. Even my kids eat it, they call it oatmeal.

On the really hectic days I just do a Lara bars, or Raw Revolution bars....I keep those on hand when I need to eat in the car, or when I don't even want to look at my stove in the morning, lol.

I agree with the other posts. I have actually eaten most of there recomendations for breakfast. I usually have cereal but sometimes I have pancakes, muffins or Enjoy Life Bars. I make the pancakes and muffins in advance and freeze them.

Also, you don't have to have breakfast food in the morning. Quick and easy is anything in the refrigerator, freezer or cupboard that can be eaten cold or microwaved. Soup, pizza or leftover dinner make a good breakfast.

On crazy mornings, I just grab an envirokid cereal bar and a banana. Usually I'll make an egg or I'll have reheated leftover pancakes (we make extras on weekends!).

i like sausage patties and a piece of fruit (I like the wellshire farms sausage patties that are frozen and pre-cooked - one minute in the microwave), smoothie using frozen fruit, gluten-free granola and fruit. Sometimes I'll eat a leftover hamburger patty or half of a steak but that is rare. Some weeks I'll precook a whole package of bacon in the oven and then put the bacon in the fridge so i can grab it quickly. cream of buckwheat is good but is a little more labor intensive.

My favorite breakfast.. I make it on the weekend, I fry up a huge batch of hashbrowns, onions, and peppers... put them in a 9x13 pan, then I mix eggs, spinache, cheese, and some type of meat.. and poor it all over, enough of the egg stuff to cover the hasbrowns and then I bake it 350 for 30-40 min (knife inserted in the middle is clean) and then I cut it up into tupperwear and keep it in my fridge. I get up and 4:45 so I grab it and go (I also do something for lunches) and then heat it up once I get to work. :)

Just wanted to mention, I've just tried the new Kinnikinnick waffles, and they are, in my opinion, far superior to all the others, Van's and Lifestream included. That, and the cinnamon & brown sugar flavor leaves my kitchen smelling like cinnamon rolls for the whole day.

Yes, Vans waffles. Blueberry ones are quite yummy! I also like apple cinnamon waffles, too. And if you have some of those toastabags they even work in that too.

Ooooh, this sounds excellent! Do you just use a bag of shredded hashbrowns or do you cut up your own???? I make fried potatoes for breakfast sometimes, but since they do take a bit of time, I might try a bag of Ore-Ida to give this recipe a try. It sounds delish! Thanks.

Bowl of Greek yogurt topped with cashews and honey or whatever fruit you have on hand will keep you full longer than you would think, and no cooking. I also make batches of gluten-free corn muffins, freeze them, then take two out in a plastic bag to defrost the night before, or toss in the microwave if I forget.

I also just purchased the kinnikinnick waffles. They were excellent! I've already eaten a whole box and it's not even the weekend yet! They are crispy, hold together well, and make the kitchen smell very good. :)

I eat cocoa pebbles cereal some mornings, and gluten-free Granola cereal other mornings.

I also eat bananas/fruit with fruit juice some mornings.

Best of luck! -Julie :)

      Food Allergies

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Bread choice for a newbie

      By Kris2093u4 · Posted

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      7yo struggling!

      By JForman · Posted

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?

      My mo,ther married a bread making when I was 4

      By the time I was 5 I had my first auto0immune disorder, Migraine headaches, with auras to blind me, and vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. I was 5 years old, and my stepfather would have pizza night, milling his own flour, making thick cheesy gluten pizza, that I would eat and the next day, I would have serious migraines, and my mother & stepfather did nothing about my medical problems. When I was 17 in my first year at college, I was diagnosed with my 2nd known auto-immune disorder, Meniere's disease. I was a elite athlete, a swimmer, and soccer player. And once again my parents didn't think anything of understanding why I had a disorder only older people get. Now after my mother passed from Alzheimer's disease she also suffered with living with gluten. She had a rash for 30 years that nobody could diagnose. She was itchy for 45 years total. My brother had a encapsulated virus explodes in his spleen and when this happened his entire intestines were covered with adhesions, scar tissue and he almost lost his life. He has 5 daughters, and when I finally was diagnosed after being pregnant and my body went into a cytokine storm, I lost my chance to have children, I ended up having Hashimoto's disease, Degenerative Disc disease, and my body started to shut down during my first trimester. I am 6ft tall and got down to 119lbs. My husband and I went to a special immunologist in Terrace, California. They took 17 vials of blood as we flew there for a day and returned home that evening. In 3 weeks, we had the answer, I have Celiac disease. Once this was known, only my father and husband made efforts to change their way of feeding me. At the family cabin, my stepfather & mother were more worried that I would ruin Thanksgiving Dinner. It wasn't until one of my cousins was diagnosed with Celiac disease. They finally looked into getting Gluten Free flour and taking measures to limit "gluten" in meals. He did nothing but ask for me to pay for my own food and wi-fi when I came to the cabin to stay after our house burned down. When he informed my mother, they proceeding to get into a physical fight and she ended up with a black eye. The is just more trauma for me. Sam had no interest in telling the truth about what he wanted. He lied to my mother that he had asked my husband if I could pay for "food" when he asked Geoffrey if I had money to pay for my wi-fi. My mother hates when he spends so much time on the computer so he lied and said I could pay for my own food. I will remind you I weighed 119lbs at this time. (At 6ft) that is a very sick looking person. Neither parent was worried about my weight, they just fought about how cheap my stepfather was. As my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014. He had her sign over the will to a trust and added his children. He had no testimonial capacity at the time, so she signed without proper papers. Making this Trust null and void. When I gave my brother my childhood home, my mother stated I would be getting an equal part of inheritance to the house on Race. It currently worth 2.0 million $. I got nothing, and my stepfather has since disowned me b/c of my claim and he knows that my mother would never have left it uneven between my biological brother and myself. She sat me and my husband down, as we lived at the Race Street house and treated and took care of it as our own. My brother took over b/c he was going through a horrific divorce and needed a home so he could get a better custody deal with his soon to be ex-wife who was a Assist DA for Denver. She used the girls against him, and he & I were the primary caregivers. We, Judd and I spent the most time with them pre the divorce. Once Judd moved into the house, he threw all of my mother, grandmother and my family heirlooms out to the Goodwill. Nobody told my mother about this as she was going through cancer treatment and had Alzheimer's disease in her mother and her sister. My stepfather and biological brother took advantage of this matter, as I called a "family council" that my brother just never could make it to at the last moment. All of the furnishing, kitchen ware, everything was in the house my brother just moved into. He had had 2 weddings, I chose to elope b/c my stepfather ruined my brother's first wedding by talking about his relationship with my brother in front of my dad and his entire family, insulting him and having my grandfather leave the ceremony. It was a disaster. My stepfather just plays dumb and blames my father for the slight. I was the only child not to have a wedding. So, my mother and stepfather never had to pay for a thing. My mother had had an agreement with my father he'd pay for college and all medical issues with their kids, myself and Judd. So truly my mother never had to pay for anything big for me in her entire life. I am looking for anyone that has had a similar story, where they grew up in a household that had a baker that regularly milled flour and ate gluten. What happened to you? DId you suffer from different auto-immune diseases b/c of living with a baker using "gluten" Please let me know. I have been looking into legal ways to get my stepfather to give me what my mother had promised, and he erased. Thank you for listening to my story. Jane Donnelly

      Blood results

      By trents · Posted

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.
