Thank you so very much for your responses today on your preferences on how to do the menu planning posts! Suprisingly everyone that responded wanted the option of a very generic menu plan post…one post focusing on breakfast items, another one on lunch items, etc…since we all live such different lives!
So I am going to kick us off with a breakfast post for our first menu plan Monday!! We got to get the day started off good, right?!?!
For those who are needing a quick breakfast to fix at home or grab as you are running out the door:
- Fiber One Breakfast bars – these are not only GOOD they are good for you!!! I really feel like I am getting a good chocolate fix with one of these as well!! I have tried several different brands and I personally like the Fiber One brand the best. These babies are only 1 point each!! (if you follow the 4 gram fiber cap – they are 2 points)
- Fiber One Yogurt – I haven’t tried this yogurt yet but I am sure it is really good – Hungry Girl has given it her seal of approval!! You can have 1 container for 0 points!! (this would also make a great snack!) Pair it with a banana and you are still only at 1.5 points!!
- Dannon Light And Fit Yogurt – Now I did pick these up this week to try! I am going to try them after my morning work out! They are only 1 point per container! Once again, pair it with a banana for a 2.5 point breakfast!
-1 Cup Honey Nut Cheerios with 1/2 cup skim milk is only 2.5 points – slice a banana and mix in it and you have a 4 point breakfast! (If you are having to watch your carbs you may not want to choose this option).
- Quaker Simple Harvest All Natural Instant Multigrain Hot Cereal – I haven’t tried them yet but they look really good…and are only about 3 points per serving!
For those of you who may have a bit more time to fix your breakfast:
- Hungry Girl’s Choco Monkey Oatmeal – takes less than 5 minutes to prepare and is less than 3 points!
- Hungry Girl’s Egg Muffin Sandwich – can’t wait to try this one – and it is only 2 points! All it takes is a few minutes to cook your egg white and then assemble your sandwich! (an egg mcMuffin from McDonald’s is 6.5 points!)
-Hungry Girl’s Bueno Breakfast Burrito – this looks AWESOME!! And it is only 2 points – YUM! Once again it only takes you about the time of scrambling an egg!
