If you have a little time on the weekends, you can take a muffin pan, spray it, then pour in a little bit of chopped up sausage, canadian bacon, bacon, ham, or some other meat. Scramble some eggs, then add spinach, cheese, onion, and green pepper to it. Pour it onto the meat until it’s about half way up the pan, then bake them until the egg sets. When they cool, put them in the fridge.

A few seconds in the microwave to heat it up and you have a great tasting breakfast that will keep you going until lunch with as many or as few calories as you want (by choosing leaner meats and adding more vegetables).

Second this idea! I use foil muffin cups (less mess and more portable) and fill then with seasoned chopped veggies- I use the frozen stir fry vegetable mix for a variety of veggies- (optional bit of grated cheese) then add the eggs. Very easy to reheat in microwave.

David Zinczenko of the Eat This, Not That series – someone who constantly rants against the unhealthiness of restaurant food – has said that the plain Egg McMuffin is one of the healthiest restaurant breakfasts.

Special K has some frozen breakfast sandwiches. While not as good as an Egg McMuffin (they use scrambled eggs instead of fried ones), they are very quick (1 1/2 minutes in the microwave) and tasty enough.

It doesn’t take that long to make your own, though. Maybe about 8 minutes. You also can use better cheese than what McDonald’s uses.
