Breakfast back in the day for me used to be pancakes, french toast, biscuits, some sort of bread with bacon and eggs.
Now on days when I'm not hitting the gym I make sure to eat a breakfast low in carbs and high in protein since I wont be moving enough to burn all the carbs. You can easily make healthy breakfast with leftover meat you have from the week, start making an extra sausage, piece of steak, or even cooked bacon (in the oven on a rack to get rid of more fat/oil) to use on days like this. Last night we made sausage and peppers for dinner so I had a left over bratwurst to cut up and toss with mushrooms, peppers, and a few onion slices. Adding oil to the pan isn't necessarily just spray a little pam to make sure your egg won't stick. Don't be afraid to eat the WHOLE egg either. Yes, there is more fat in an egg when you eat the yolk, but the yolk also has over half the protein found in a egg and a lot of really good vitamins. Keep the ratio 3:1, 1 whole egg to 3 egg whites if you need more than a single egg like when you make an omelette.
This meal has 279cal, 7g carbs, and 25g protein! High protein=stay fuller longer!
