1. Roll ups. I am the Queen of roll ups, I make them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. A breakfast roll up for us is a tortilla (Costco has a great deal on whole wheat ones, they have like 7grams of fiber, I microwave one or two for 30 seconds to get it pliable) I cut up a piece or two of lunch meat (turkey or ham) put it in a pan and then crack an egg or two and scramble the egg and meat together. Put it in a tortilla (sometimes with a sprinkle of cheese too) and roll it up. My TRICK: use aluminum foil on the bottom half of the roll up to keep it together. The kids love these, some days. I do them all the time for lunch with spinach, quinoa, lunch meat, leftover grilled chicken, tzatziki sauce, artichoke hearts, and lately cream cheese and ham for the kids and cut into slices so they have bite size pinwheels.
2. Oatmeal. the kids eat this almost daily, and it seems to keep them full the longest.
3. Pancakes. There is a reason I am not the normal pancake cook in the family, I make them lumpy and don't follow a recipe. However, even with the lumps they have been pretty good. I make enough so I have some in the fridge that the kids can munch on later. Add flax seed and pumpkin puree a dash of cinnamon and they a little healthy, plus they don't need syrup so they are not as messy.
Right now our thing is oatmeal, but I am wanting eggs tomorrow.

Next time you get snow, put syrup on it :D
I think its so funny how people are about their eggs. I am so grossed out by runny egg yolk, it makes me gag just thinking about it, Chris on the other hand LOVES his that way. I am the hard yolk boring one in this relationship ;)
Oh and I cant wait to see you soon!
We have had the same breakfast every day for years: muesli, soy yoghurt and fruit. We vary the flavors depending on the seasonal fruit, but the basics are the same, even when we are travelling, but somehow we are rarely bored with it :)
