Changing Up My Morning Routine

Most mornings, my routine looks like this:

5:20 alarm goes off

5:45-7 workout at gym

7:15-7:45 shower/dress/pack lunch/get ready for the day

7:45-8:00 morning commute

8:15 Quaker Oatmeal breakfast of champions

My normal oatmeal mix isn’t pretty but it is definitely tasty and filling. It includes:

1/2 c Quaker Oats

1/2 c berries

3/4 c water

1 tsp cinnamon

1 Tbsp flax seed

a dollop of 0% Chobani yogurt

This mix has superb staying power because it has a mix of protein, carbs, and fiber. But, I wanted to change up my morning a bit and whipped out an easy breakfast sandwich instead.

This simple breakfast included:

1 Arnold 100 calorie sandwich thin

1/3 c Egg Beaters Just Whites with a splash of hot sauce mixed in

1 slice Fat Free sharp cheddar cheese

1 thin spread of garlic hummus

It was absolutely delicious though was finished much faster than my oatmeal. It will be a good experiment to see if it has staying power. I’ll let you know later!

Do you ever get tired of your regular breakfast routine? Have a great day!

    Wow, this sounds like an intense trip! Glad you're okay — it actually sounds like a lot of fun but one I'm sure you're not dying to repeat any time soon. 😉
