Bowl of Fruity Pebbles and a cup of coffee.
This alot of times is my evening snack...
Best Present Ever
steel cut oats and raisins with a grated apple and/or a bit of peanut butter or toasted walnuts and/or unsweetened apple butter. Peanut butter on whole wheat toast. Egg, spinach, cottage cheese omelette. Quinoa with fruit and walnuts sometimes. Shredded wheat with raisins, and, for some reason, unsweetened soymilk (otherwise I don't use soy milk, but I prefer it over cow's milk with shredded wheat. No explanation for this.) Greek yogurt and homemade granola or honey and fruit. Muesli and yogurt and a grated apple. Boiled eggs and fruit. All with many cups of coffee.
This morning I came back from running 10 miles and my husband had made french toast with whole wheat bread (he bakes all our bread) for the kids so I had a slice of that with apple butter on top. It was very yummy. He'd put vanilla and cinnamon in with the egg and milk. On Sundays, we almost always make whole wheat buttermilk pancakes for the kids. I don't usually have them, but they are good, and we usually have leftovers that we heat up later in the week in the toaster oven.
You need to combine carbs and protein for breakfast.
1/3 c Oatmeal with scoop chocolate protein powder, chia seed, and peanut butter.
Frosted mini-wheat with scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder. You can combine this any cereal (keep sugar under 15 gm)
Whole Wheat pancakes - with added banana, chia seeds, protein powder, sugar free syrup.
Protein shake with banana.
Also, you should constantly be feeding your body protein. Snacks should include a carb and protein as well. Protein keeps you satisfied and your body uses it for repairing muscle and tissues, and red blood cells. Aim for maybe 20 - 30 gm of protein per meal depending on your size and activity level. I aim for just under 1 gm per lb of my body weight consumed in 5 - 6 meals/snacks per day.

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
I just drink a pot of coffee. I'm not sure if Trent would classify it as food, but I do.
And Scout? Cocoa Pebbles own Fruity Pebbles face.
It's not the heat, it's the stupidity.
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Once I had a cinnamon crunch bagel from Panera, although calling that thing a 'bagel' seems just wrong. It has a big clump of cinnamon sugar in a depression on one side, so It looks much more like a bialy.

No I don't.
