One of my favorite products is non-fat Greek-Style yogurt. It's ultra creamy, higher in protein than regular yogurt, and it's hard to believe that it's non-fat -- it's that good. There are several brands out there so it should be easy to find. One cup of nonfat Greek-style plain yogurt has 100 calories and 20 grams of protein so this is a great addition to your breakfast menu. Here are some healthy breakfast ideas with good quality protein:
Greek-style Yogurt Parfait with low fat granola and fresh berries
Smoothie with Greek-Style yogurt, 1/2 of a frozen banana, berries and fat free milk -- add some ground flax seed or flax seed oil to kick up the Omega-3s (more on fabulous Omegas in an upcoming post!)
Breakfast Sandwich - I developed this recipe for a breakfast sandwich with the inspiration of one I had tasted at my favorite coffee retailer. For the same number of calories as their Reduced Fat Breakfast Sandwich, which has 350 calories, this breakfast includes the sandwich PLUS a cup of nonfat milk and a 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries. The entire meal has 350 calories, 30 grams of protein and 1/2 the days requirement for calcium (there's also a slice of reduced fat cheese on the sandwich -- yum!) Here is the recipe , though I actually prefer to use fresh egg whites instead of the Egg Beaters. I also used Thomas' Light Whole Grain English muffin which has 8 grams of fiber.
