Toast or toaster waffle (I like mine with peanut butter) or a bagel and cream cheese
Grab a fruit like apple or banana or something
Could make a smoothie if you have time
Or just protein powder mixed into your liquid of choice
You could also prep something the night before if that works with your schedule

when i get into a breakfast routine the angels sing. these are the two things i always gravitate towards:
- some sort of an egg scramble. itâs crucial to have one cheese, one green, and one other vegetable. lately iâve been blistering tomatoes in olive oil, butter, salt and pep, and when those soften i add my scrambled eggs also with salt and pepper. iâll throw in a handful of spinach, or kale, or even arugula, and let that cook. when itâs almost done i add in some mediterranean herb feta crumbles. always serve with a piece of buttered toast or even crisp up some potatoes on the side. andouille sausage is my favorite protein for this when i have it.
- i literally used to have this everyday for a month a couple of years ago and every now and then i come back to it but never as intensely. old fashioned oats and oatmilk on the stovetop. add vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, half of a mashed banana, a handful of chia seeds, some salt, and honey or agave to sweeten. let that cook and assemble your toppings! i usually cut up the other half of the banana and accompany that with any other fruit i might have. i add melted almond or peanut butter, granola, more chia seeds, and i would always add some yogurt, but ik you said dairy free!! mix it all together and you get this slop of oats, seeds, fruit, yogurty goodness and itâs so filling!
there are definitely easier breakfasts but these two are always the most filling in my opinion. banana and toast is always a classic.

For low saturated fat, no dairy, but filling, Iâd recommend something high fiber with as much protein as you can manage. This is why oatmeal is so popularâitâs fast, cheap, has fiber and protein, and can be customized to your other nutritional needs or time availability. And there are tons of recipes online for savory oatmeal if youâre not always a fan of sweet first thing in the morning.
âŠbut if anyoneâs like me and lowkey allergic to oats, frozen protein waffles or pancakes are fast, and you can throw on some fruit for extra fiber.
Otherwise, Iâd encourage thinking outside the box and considering lunch-type foods for breakfast instead, as they tend to be more balanced nutritionally than most typical American breakfast foods. (Might require more prepping the night before if youâre short on time in the mornings.)
Finally, because itâs not cheap but personally has been a lifesaver for days I really have to be up and active in the morning but canât tolerate much food: meal replacement drink. (My favorite is the regular chocolate Ensure because it doesnât have a bunch of insane extra ingredients or caffeine, and itâs the most gentle on my stomach.)

Make fresh rice or reheat some rice. While itâs hot, just crack a raw egg in there and stir it around. Do you have scraps of veggies in the fridge, or a protein you like? Throw it in there if it fits the flavor profile. Add sesame seeds and soy sauce and youâre cooking with gas, baby.
Bonus; overnight oats. this one is great for when you donât have time. All you need is jars and stuff to go in the jars. for a while my go to was this:
Get maybe 7 jars. Fill each with the following:
1/4-1/3 cup dried oats
2 tablespoons chia seeds
maybe Some raisons or a dried fruit you like
Matcha powder (I was using the Trader Joeâs sweet one, maybe 1-2 tablespoon )
Now put those aside. In the night, when you realize you donât know what the morning will bring, grab one of those jars and add whatever milk, about Âœ cup maybe. Or less I donât remember. Maybe also some maple syrup if you have it. Also add fruits or whatever else youâd like. In the morning you will open your Fridge and say âthanks yesterday me!â

Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand.
Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever theyâre selling, theyâll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream.
Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your baristaâs name and tip them.
Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whateverâs trending on #booktok.Â
Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on.
When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you.
You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live.
