Preferably something that has little to no preparation required.

I’m going to give that a try, that sounds like a great breakfast now that eggs are back to their normal price
Yes, I also lost a lot of weight since adding eggs on my breakfast. I’m surprised most answers here are for cereal and peanut butter but no eggs.
Eggs are great, but they’re not a fast/quick item to me. You can boil them in advance to have them on hand, but sometimes peeling can be annoying.
Oh, depends how you have them. I typically fry them using cooking spray, or soft boil them. Fried they take me 2 minutes. I don’t scramble or make them into omelettes ever for breakfast, others in my family who do take at least 15 minutes which feels like an eternity to me.
As I’ve become older the old “unhealthy” meals of bacon and eggs were not fully bad way to start your day in the sense of protein over carbs and sugars.
The latter leaves one hungry and snacking all day with no way to ever really get full. As much as bacon isn’t healthy for us the protein start is better for blood sugars than oatmeal or cereals to break fast.
Well, I’m a morning oatmeal eater and my doctor, who is way too into nutrition ,is happy with it, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
We go over diet & blood tests every year.
ah yes the cock and balls breakfast
Fiber & protein with a little salt & sugar in there for funsies.
Is there an equivalent to eatcheapandhealthy here?
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !cheaphealthyfood@lemmy.world
Thanks!

I usually eat reheated pizza early in the morning when I get home drunk.
Why reheat?
Craving something warm
Oatmeal and yoghurt.
You can switch it up with fruits, nuts, syrups (like maple) etc.My goto is:
Oatmeal, plain yoghurt (3.5%) or greek (10%), passion fruit, apple, maple syrup (if I like it sweet).This will certainly fill you, has lots of vitamins and depending on how much and what you do is easy to eat.
Wrap sweet potatoes in foil and roast them in the oven over night. In the morning, grab a sweet potato out of the oven and eat it for breakfast.
This is probably the easiest and most nutritious meal possible.
All Night? I’d be worried that’d be too long to try this myself.
Do ovens not have timers where you live? That’s wild.
In my country, you set the timer (and temperature obv) on your oven for how long whatever you have needs to cook, and once it’s counted down to 0, the oven switches off.
So you can put sweet potatoes in the oven to cook for an hour and go to bed- and get this right, in the morning you wake up to perfectly cooked and still slightly warm sweet potatoes, and a house that isn’t burnt down.
Crazy or what right? So futuristic and high tech.
My shit just beeps at the end of the timer and you can’t even hear it if you’re in the other room. If you forget to turn off the oven, it just stays on forever.
…piece of shit
If it’s not wired into the wall, you could plug it into a timer and set it that way.
what kind of shitty oven did you have that just plugged into the wall? they commonly use up to 5kW, so much more than any regular outlet will be able to handle
do ovens Not RUN on GAS wheRE you Live??? THAT’S WILD.
See, I can be a snarky dipshit too.
If your suggesting a fucking $10 timer on your electric oven plug, that’s laughable. No wonder you said “overnight” instead of an actual time, it must take you the full 8 hrs to cook a potato with that thing.
I didn’t even know this was possible. Looks like my current oven may be able to do it - it has a ticking timer knob - but pretty sure all previous ones didn’t have this feature.
Other than the use case you have mentioned I can’t see any reason to use it. It would be annoying to have the oven turn off before the food is cooked to perfection, which it rarely is at a prescribed time
No shit I’ve heard of a timer.
You’re the one that said “overnight” in your explanation instead of an actual time to use. I meant no issues with my comment to you so I dont understand your issue.
Most oven timers in the U.S. start the oven when the timer runs out, rather than shutting it off.
Your snarky attitude makes you sound fun to be around. /s
I can’t imagine wanting to eat a potato in of any kind first thing in the morning.
For those that grew up on hashbrowns or left over potatoes fried the next morning, it’s a staple.
This is a surprisingly good breakfast. I add a little dab of butter and a tiny sprinkle of brown sugar.
Oatmeal and one or two hard boiled eggs. It will satisfy your hunger so you don’t over eat and very healthy.
Banana. If still hungry then apple. If still hungry then banana. Repeat.
Fruits are good for you. Sugar in the morning and they hydrate you aswell. Might be a good idea to have a sandwich or something as a snack before lunch.
No protein? I’m gonna be hungry again in an hour or two!
Op was asking for a fast breakfast really early in the morning. I think its not a good idea to eat something very heavy just after waking up. That’s why i recommended a sandwich as a snack some time later before lunch.
Idk about that. I make biscuits and gravy on the weekends sometimes and always feel good for the rest of the day. The lighter stuff I eat during the week leaves me dragging by mid morning.
Fast as in the non-eating time since last meal or fast as in quick? I might have missed the original question… If it’s the latter, there’s plenty of quick, filling meal items in the morning. When I was serious about weight lifting, I would drink a protein shake 1-3 times a day to supplement muscle-building.
As for the former, intermittent fast-ers are adamant that anything other than water, plain coffee/tea will break their fast and provide less benefits.
I don’t know, but wonder if there is a scientific basis for this. If you’re avoiding eating something that’s going to fill you up (ie protein), my reaction is kind of “why bother”…
Diet Coke.
My standard breakfast (for years) is: 1 hard boiled egg, a large spoonful of cottage cheese, and some fruit (usually a small banana or a mandarin orange). Assuming you hard boiled the eggs in advance, the prep time is however long it takes you to peel an egg.
A bottle of Soylent contains 400 calories. It contains exactly 20% of each RDA-recognized vitamin, about 30 grams of carbs, a healthy balance of fats, and protein. Preparation is shaking the bottle for about three seconds, and peeling off a little foil seal.
Used to be you couldn’t drink it fast without getting digestion issues but now they’ve added enzymes to help digest the oats, so you can chug that bottle without issue.
A little more expensive than groceries you prepare, but cheaper than any buyable prepared breakfast you’d get from a coffee shop, diner, convenience store, or fast food joint.
Is it vegan?
Yup. Just don’t try to have a 100% Soylent diet, that’s when I was always feeling hungry. This was like 10 years ago when I bought the powder in bulk.
The bottles you can buy at a grocery store today are much better. Downing a bottle of Soylent is unparalleled in terms of time, cost, amd nutrition.
I also drink these. I like the chocolate flavor.
I like that there’s a variety. I keep chocolate, strawberry, and banana on hand
I much prefer Huel. Especially when you make it with hot water. It’s like drinkable oatmeal.
My favorite flavors are salted caramel and cinnamon roll.
They scientifically engineered a less appetizing name than Soylent.
Protein shake.
Chewing is linked with satiety, so I’d steer towards at least something semisolid to better meet ops criteria.
Fiber helps more with feeling full than chewing. A proper protein shake will fill you up.
As long as you put some fiber in it I guess
I’m now having fiber shakes for breakfast from now on.
Bread, butter, cheese and cold cuts.
