1/2 cup sliced strawberries
1 whole egg
1 scoop protein powder
1/2 banana
small portion of slivered almonds
Mix the oatmeal, egg. protein powder and milk well with a fork, nuke for two min. Top with the rest off the ingredients, you'll love it and it's packed with nutrients. It's my breakfast of choice most of the time.
You mentioned protein shakes, do you make them or buy them?

I have bought the lean shakes from GNC, but really they
are too much to drink. I prefer to make them so they
are not so big. I use a whey protein and vanilla coconut
milk - very good. I like this as I'm catching my breath
after a work out and before I shower. Should that be
counted as breakfast under those circumstances? I
really only drink them after a workout. Maybe I should
try to add more of them???
