Best Breakfasts for Before and After Your Workout

At Home; In the Microwave

Quick Breakfast Fix: Morningstar Farms Breakfast Sandwich with Cheese

280 calories, 28g protein, 35g carbohydrate, 3g fat (0.5g saturated), 5g fiber

Why: "Microwave foods are often high in sugar and saturated and trans fats," Burke says -- but not this one! It's made with fat-free egg scramblers, skim-milk cheese, and a meat substitute that does an excellent impersonation of real sausage.

Quick Breakfast Fix: One packet Nature's Path Instant Hot Oatmeal Original mixed with 2 tablespoons Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal and 1/2 cup raspberries

282 calories, 10g protein, 43g carbohydrate, 8g fat (0.5g saturated), 12g fiber

Why: The rolled oats provide some protein and healthy carbs, and the berries are loaded with antioxidants and fiber, plus the flaxseed has good-for-your-heart omega-3 fatty acids.

Next: At the Office

This article was good although it should have been titled, Yes you have time to eat a Healthy breakfast." verses just "breakfast." My mother taught me at a young age to alway's eat something for breakfast even if only a piece of cake. As an adult, I still stick with that advice. It breaks my fast from sleeping.
