Help you reach your fat loss goals high protein breakfast idea number one overnight oats this is a staple in my life a lot of my clients life if you are someone who gets up in the morning maybe
You have kids maybe you only get up with a little bit of time to get out the door and go to work you don’t want the excuse of saying i don’t have time to eat breakfast this is something you can make
In advance and pop in the fridge it’s super easy and depending on what you put in it you can make it very high protein and very filling so here’s the simplest way to make overnight oats you’re
Gonna get a jar i suggest making two or three at a time so that you have them in the fridge you’re going to put in half a cup of oats half a cup of oats has about five grams of protein
Next you’re going to put about half a cup to even a cup of plain greek yogurt that’s going to have about 20 to 22 grams of protein so now we’re at 25 grams of protein you can also sub plain
Greek yogurt you can add half a cup of plain greek yogurt instead of a full cup and you can put in a scoop of protein powder as well that’s going to get you up in the 30 grams of protein range then
On top of that you can add toppings so you can add chia seeds you can add almond butter or peanut butter that’s going to give you one tablespoon is gonna give you about four or five grams of protein
And of course berries and then you’re gonna mix it up and pop it in the fridge and in the morning it’s gonna be nice and creamy and it’ll all be soaked up together and it’s gonna give you some
Carbs some good fats lots of protein to help fill you up and energize you for the day super easy to make number one overnight oats easy high protein breakfast idea and number two protein pancakes so protein waffles or protein pancakes these are super easy to make but i’m going to share
My two favorites with you in this video today one comes from a company you just add water to the mix and make your protein pancakes the next is a mix that only has three ingredients and also super
Easy to make so the first flourish protein pancake mix i talked about these in my healthy swaps video right here that i posted a few weeks ago i’ll link that video in the description below but i talked about them because i love them so much so these are the birthday cake flavor
Protein pancakes in half a cup so all you have to do is take half a cup of the powder add half a cup of water mix it up and either make pancakes or throw it in a waffle maker
One serving so one half cup serving makes quite a few pancakes it’s only 280 calories seven grams of fiber only two grams of sugar and 23 grams of protein so these have been a favorite in my household my kids love them especially this birthday cake flavor they have vanilla and
Chocolate as well but again if you are looking for simple easy breakfast ideas these guys are so good and guess what the people at flourish protein pancakes because i talk about how much
I love them so much gave me a 10 off code to give you guys so if you’re looking to order these i’ll put the link in the description below so sometimes if we have busy mornings with the kids we’ll make
These the night before either waffles or just whip up some pancakes throw them in the ziploc bags or containers and put them in the freezer and then the next morning we just pop them in the toaster
And the kids eat them and i know they’re getting lots of fiber not a lot of sugar and lots of protein to start their day but also i eat them too they’re so good okay and my second high
Protein pancake recipe is half a cup of oats half a cup of cottage cheese and two eggs mix it all up in a blender with whatever you like cinnamon or anything else you’d like to sweeten your pancakes
With make your pancakes and then top it with fresh fruit or maple syrup whatever you prefer eat them up super high in protein and again very easy to make on busy mornings or to make in advance
High protein breakfast idea number three i wanted to make this all one idea because i feel like there’s so many options here eggs so obviously we all know eggs are a great source of good fats so many good micronutrients and of course a great source of protein so there’s a few different ways
You can incorporate eggs into your breakfast one egg omelette or an egg scramble a bunch of veggies two eggs liquid egg whites on top of that to add extra protein and not a lot of calories
Mix it all up in a pan and eat it that’s option one with eggs super easy you can also increase the protein content of your egg scramble you can throw some turkey bacon in the air fryer or whip that up in the pan right after you’re gonna get even more protein and
Again it’s super easy to whip up in the morning option two with eggs you can make egg bites so you’re gonna take muffin tins load it with a bunch of veggies you’re gonna mix up in a bowl about six
Eggs six egg whites and you’re gonna pour them in the muffin tin on top of all the veggies you’re gonna bake them in the oven and pull them out once you’ve made those each egg bite is gonna
Be about six to eight grams of protein depending you can calculate that simply in a myfitnesspal when you put the recipe in you can figure out how many grams of protein each egg bite is gonna
Have if you eat three of those you’re gonna get about 20 grams of protein and of course they are super easy for busy mornings and one more option for eggs with breakfast is a breakfast burrito
Or a breakfast sandwich or an open face sandwich so you can take one piece of bread you can put on two eggs you can even mix extra egg whites in with your scrambled eggs to increase the protein intake
Mix that all up with some veggies or some cheese you can put it in a high protein wrap but you can take a piece of bread you can make a full sandwich you can make an open face sandwich you can add
Avocado to it some good fats to keep you feeling full and give you more energy for the day super easy to whip up in the morning and again a great source of protein for breakfast okay and number
Four last but not least protein oatmeal so there are a few different ways you can make this protein oatmeal again it depends on your preference um what you think tastes good because of course if you’re gonna eat it it better taste good don’t struggle through it if it tastes disgusting you’re
Not gonna keep up with that again remember this is a healthy lifestyle not a diet so we need to enjoy our food especially first thing in the morning okay so let’s start with oatmeal half
A cup of oatmeal has about five grams of protein and about 150 calories then how are we going to add protein to it so a few options you can add a scoop of protein powder so whether you have chocolate protein powder vanilla flavorless protein powder add a scoop of that mix it in
That’s a great way to add about 20 to 25 grams of protein to your breakfast but if you’re someone who doesn’t want to eat protein powder with your oatmeal or you don’t like the taste of it you can also add cottage cheese adding cottage cheese to your oatmeal you won’t taste it a
Lot of people don’t like the texture of cottage cheese but it is a great source of protein for not very many calories and again will help keep you feeling full so once you’ve cooked your oatmeal you can put in some cottage cheese mix that up that’s gonna boost the protein content of your
Oatmeal and last option you can add liquid egg whites so if you are someone who microwaves your oatmeal like me you don’t get the big pan i don’t have time in the morning to actually slow cook
Oatmeal i make instant oatmeal oats water then add a little bit of liquid egg white so based on again how much protein you want to add add your liquid egg whites mix that in and then cook it and then
You’re going to want to put in other things to flavor it so you can add cinnamon you can add peanut butter or almond butter again gonna get some good fats there you’re gonna get some more protein you can add chopped nuts you can add almonds cashews chia seeds all of these additives
Are gonna help add nutritious ingredients to your oatmeal to help keep you feeling full and give you a whole bunch of micronutrients but it’s also going to up the protein intake of your oatmeal and of course you could add half a banana which i always do you could add berries whatever your
Favorite fruits are to help flavor it as well okay so there you go that was four easy high protein breakfast ideas a few other options that i just want to throw in there of course a protein shake
So if you’re someone who skips breakfast often but you want to start eating breakfast and maybe you have a long drive to work or maybe you just don’t have a lot of time in the morning or don’t even
Like eating food some people just say i’m not hungry i don’t want to eat food in the morning that’s totally fine what about a protein shake so there’s nothing wrong with throwing some almond milk protein powder some fruit you could even throw oats you could throw greek yogurt all of
The things into a smoothie blend it up take it to go so at least you are getting that 25 30 grams of protein first thing in the morning it’s gonna help you feel full and my second option
Is just cottage cheese or greek yogurt what we would call parfait so a cup of greek yogurt has about 20 to 22 grams of protein in it you can add a cup of greek yogurt honey some berries
Some low sugar granola even sprinkle some oats or some high fiber cereal into the greek yogurt mix it up there is a solid high protein breakfast for you and do the exact same thing if you were
Someone who likes cottage cheese you could do the exact same thing in sub greek yogurt for cottage cheese so those are just two other options that didn’t make the top four list but again super easy if you are looking for high protein breakfast ideas who says breakfast has to only
Be eaten at breakfast time all of these foods i listed can actually be eaten at any time throughout the day you could have this snack you can have it as lunch or as dinner there’s nothing like having breakfast for dinner am i right not gonna lie we have had these protein pancakes
For dinner before so good so take some of these ideas and i hope it was helpful just a tip on if you are struggling to reach your protein goal each day here’s the simplest way to kind of
Figure it out for yourself even if you’re someone who doesn’t necessarily track your macros or you don’t even want to but if you do track your macros either way say your protein goal is 120 grams of
Protein a day so if you’ve calculated that based on all the tips i give you in this video right here where i talk all about protein and i show you how i get my protein intake each day let’s
Say 120 grams a day you need to do the simplest way divide that by five so if you are eating five times throughout the day 120 grams divided by five is 24 grams of protein so if you are eating
Five times a day and you’re getting 24 grams of protein each time you eat you are gonna hit your protein goal now again not set in stone if you get 30 grams of protein with your breakfast then
You can get about 18 to 20 grams of protein in a snack and then about 25 26 you know like you can move the numbers around of course it’s not set at 24 grams but will help you understand about how
Many grams of protein you should be getting each time you eat in order to reach your daily protein goal and of course we know if you’ve watched any other videos on my channel how important protein is in building lean muscle and decreasing body fat i talk all about it in almost every single
Video i post on this channel because it’s so important so i’ll link some videos in the description below that i think might help you i’ve also got a high protein foods video right here which i’ll link in the description below too if you’re looking for more ideas on
