Porridge for brakfast, quick in the microwave and very good for you.

I have recently been taking home made tortilla into work. I make a large one and it lasts for 2-3 days. I dont use any oil apart from a spray of frylite and use boiled potatoes, peppers and onions fried until golden in the frylight then add 3 -4 eggs. it's filling and I have lost 4 lbs over the past two weeks.
A bowl of any cereal especially porridge with skimmed or semi-skimmed milk makes a good wholesome breakfast.If that is not enough eat a banana or other kind of fruit.
For lunch a ham,tuna or salmon sandwich on wholmeal bread should be OK.
If you want a salad cook some brown rice and add some diced ham, sweetcorn, raisins, sweet pepper, celery, peas and peanuts or anythung else you fancy. Finish off with a yogurt or a few pieces of fruit.
Breakfast:
Yogurt Parfait - start with a layer of blueberry yogurt, then a layer of granola, then a layer of blueberries and repeat.

If you have salmon the night before - make enough to have leftovers.
Flake the salmon. (I just crumble it with my fingers.)
Add a little mayo and olive oil.
Chopped Onion
Optional: Italian Seasoning to taste.
Refrigerate
The next morning put it on a bed of lettuce/greens of your choice for a great salad.
OR
Pile it into a flour tortilla for a great wrap.
I have two eggs for breakfast sometimes with steamed spinage and sometimes just with cracker bread (as I'm on a gluten free diet). The eggs take about 1 minute to fry ( if ry them in a tiny bit of olive oil.) but you could poach them instead or do them in the microwave.

The thing about eggs is that they are so high in protein that you don't feel hungry as early as you do when you only eat cereal (with the exception of porridge) so you eat less and they keep you going to longer. However, if you have a problem with cholesterol, they might not be the best for you.

I couldn't function without my eggs and jasmine tea in the morning.

Porridge is great for breakfast. Have it with some natural organic honey to sweeten it if you need to. Also a bowl of raspberries, strawberries and blueberries (hardly any time to prepare) with bio yoghurt and some nuts and seeds sprinkled on top. How about veggie based soup for lunch if ther'es a microwave?
