Diabetes runs in my family so there are no carbs or sugar for breakfast. we eat oatmeal (it regulates the sugar) eggs, fruit, milk and lots of coffee

e
cold cereal isn't good for anyone, it has so much sugar and no protein (unless you eat that really gross whole grain stuff)

I am diabetic and I bake a lot for my family. I don't eat the sweet stuff... I only take a bite or two...the treat that I make for myself on a regular basis is yogurt. I make a half a gallon at a time because that's how much my yogurt maker holds. I have two of the plastic tub inserts that the yogurt actually goes in so when one gets half empty I start another one.

I eat my yogurt with fruit, nuts and a little Splenda...it is sooooo yummy!!!

my son has eating issues because of medication and we dont have a lot of time in the am. I buy him Kashi cookies, trail mix. They have fruit, nuts, sunflower seeds in them and are great in the am or for a snack. They taste pretty ok too. I find them in the organic isle at my grocery store. There are many recipes on Allrecipes.com too for healthy breakfast / snack cookies, muffins and bars.

I use hard boiled eggs as a grab and go snack. Make a big batch of pancakes or waffles, freeze them individually, then bag them up and use like eggos. Muffins are always a good bet, too. There are millions of muffin recipes, so you can find some that suit your tastes. Make a couple dozen on the weekend, it will take about an hour total, and then dole them out during the week.

These are wonderful, I am printing them off as I speak. The only thing I would suggest instead of Wal-Mart vitamins is to go to a health food store and have the people there suggest a good multi-vitamin. WM vitamins are not really that good.

Hope you enjoy the recipes...what's wrong with Walmart vitamins?

Katys Lighter than Air rolls are fabulous to fix and freeze. I fix them with whole wheat flour and honey instead of sugar. I take them out of the freezer, nuke them for 10 or 20 seconds, then make a little sandwhich with them...either left over ham, or turkey, or I fry and egg and some bacon and make a bacon and egg sandwhich. Terrificly yummy!

I have these in the freezer all the time - they are great to defrost and have with soup in the evenings - like fresh bread on demand! I like the sound of them as a bacon and egg sandwich...mmmmmmmm
