Help! Fast prep breakfast needed

kalagar Posts: 3 Joined: 2006/04/14	2006/05/09, 10:28 AM I need some help in getting a quick meal in before my 1hr+ commute to my workout then work. I've got about 15 minutes to prep and eat before I'm on the road. Please don't ask for me to get up a little earlier because getting up @ 3:50 am is hard enough. Thanks for the suggestions!

Throw some eggs into a pan and fry them up and eat with a whole wheat tortilla and salsa- I use egg substitute for convenience. Keep hard boiled eggs in the fridge for a really quick meal, you can also eat these as you go. have them with some pre-cooked canadian bacon-hubby's fav. Cottage cheese with berries is another quick one. How about peanut butter on whole wheat. I'm always chowing down while I prepare the kids lunches etc, never time to sit down:)
