On the days I work, I usually eat oatmeal with some variety of fruit and nuts. This is a very filling breakfast with just about the right amount of calories to get me through to lunch. However, on my days off, I like making a more varied breakfast. Some of my favorite breakfast foods include sweet bread products (sweet rolls, waffles, muffins, etc). Unfortunately, these tend to be fairly high calorie foods that don’t fill me up till lunch.

Today, I actually managed to make an interesting filling breakfast for around 500 calories. I tried a new recipe I had found in Cook’s Illustrated called Potato Roesti, made Scrambled Tofu and ate 1/4 of a cantaloupe. It was tasty, filling and not too calorie intense (though I’m going to have to watch my fat intake for the rest of the day ).
