What will I do for breakfast, darnit?! Lunch will be fine since I've been bringing for the last couple of weeks anyway, but breakfast! Eggs on the fly, the best bacon in the world, bagels, yummy yogurt parfaits, toasted flatbread sammiches, homemade muffins, apple turnovers.....oh, and the best hardrolls EVAH!
*sigh*
I don't have time to make something at home, and breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I wake up starving every morning. Cereal, yea, that will fill me up for about 1/2 hour....I could stop for a bagel...but that will get old.
Easy! Just be like me & forget to eat. I usually remember breakfast around 3-4pm & lunch/dinner anywhere between 8-10pm. Right now, it's 2.45am & I've just finished a bowl of cornflakes.
3 o'clock in the morning and you're eating cereal?! You're worse than me! I have to eat every couple of hours, but I make an exception in the middle of the night (which is why I wake up starving!).
IF this office was in the Private Sector they would get a formal warning ! WE have a breakout area ! How unprofessional to eat breakfast at your desk !
Yea, oatmeal is good since we have hot/cold water cooler here. Microwave eggs, yes! We used to make those for customers when I worked at the General Store. Another good one!
if you HAVE to have a breakfast type meal; jimmy dean makes an awesome breakfast bowl. i get the "low fat/cal" one which is scrambled eggs, potatoes and scrambled turkey sausage with cheese. I love em! microwave and in 2 mintues you have breakfast!
I will make a batch of breakfast tortillas, and freeze them.
Make scrambled eggs and add cheese, sausage, onion, mushrooms, salsa, whatever you like. Roll in tortillas. Package individually and freeze. Take one out the night before to thaw, then heat in microwave and eat on your way to work. Or, take it out in the morning and heat at work. You can make them small or large.
Everyone eats at their desks in my building, too. I never go to the cafeteria, yuck! I eat pita chips for breakfast...cinnamon and sugar lately. I like to go out for lunch, though.
Two words for ya, Amy- Dunkin' Donuts! If you stick one of their breakfast sandwuches in an soft sided lunch box, I bet ya it would stay warm until you got to work (or keep a roll of foil in your car to wrap it in).

you can get some frozen varieties and keep in the freezer that are better and cheaper than theirs. i thought theirs was bland and expensive. check the breakfast food freezer section at the grocery store. i have gotten to know it well since the divorce!!
I make egg salad up at the beginning of the week and cook a pound of bacon. Then in the mornings I toast my bread and nuke the bacon to warm it for about 30 seconds. Have egg salad with bacon on toast most mornings.
I also love chex mix but without the pretzel and peanuts. So sometimes I make a batch with justthe cereal and the sauce and bake it and will eat it as a snack or for breakfast at my desk.
I also sometimes make muffins on Sunday and have them.
My SIL puts eggs in her muffin pan and bakes them then reheats them at work and buys a bagel.
Make a batch of Steel Cut Oats (oatmeal) in advance in the evening and, when cooked, divide into individual servings and refrigerate.
In the morning, add a bit of water to a SCO serving, an appropriate small amount of 5 minute rolled/flaked oatmeal, and nuke in the microwave to reheat. Before the reheat, you can also add dried fruit (bananas, cranberries, blueberries, apricots, prunes, mangos, etc.) as suits your taste. Use skim milk or yogurt as you prefer.
I guarantee, SCOs stay with you and reduce hunger pangs for hours.
