The short answer is, yes! Breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.totalgymdirect.com\/what-are-the-benefits-of-breakfast\">some of your cravings at night can be linked back<\/a> to what you ate when you first woke up. There was a small study that showed that boys that were fed a high-glycemic breakfast ate up to 81% more calories throughout the remainder of the day than when they were fed a low-glycemic breakfast.<\/p>\n<p>That leads us into the longer answer \u2013 yes, it is that important, but the <em>type<\/em> of breakfast is key. Specifically, making sure that your breakfast is packed with protein will help make you feel full longer and have a ripple effect on your cravings for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some simple solutions to our most common breakfast mistakes:<\/p>\n<h3>Oatmeal<\/h3>\n<p>Oats are a great source of fiber and a healthy way to kick off your day. However, without any added protein your breakfast may not have much staying power (read: scrounging around the break room at 10am). Here are some great protein sources to pair with your oats:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nuts\/nut butter<\/li>\n<li>Hemp hearts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Almond Butter Oatmeal Recipe<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13437 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" data-src=\"http:\/\/rtdesigngroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Oatmeal-300x300-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Find recipe at: <a href=\"https:\/\/taracoleman.com\/recipe-almond-butter-oatmeal\/\">https:\/\/taracoleman.com\/recipe-almond-butter-oatmeal\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Smoothies<\/h3>\n<p>Smoothies are a great way to sneak in lots of nutrients to kick start your day. However, a common mistake is to add in too many fruits and forget the protein altogether. Shoot for 1 serving of fruit and add some of these great protein sources:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Protein powder<\/li>\n<li>Plain Greek yogurt<\/li>\n<li>Nuts\/seeds (if you have a high powered blender)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Blood Sugar Stabilizing Smoothie Recipe<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13440 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-src=\"http:\/\/rtdesigngroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Smoothie-300x200-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Find recipe at: <a href=\"https:\/\/taracoleman.com\/5-healing-smoothie-recipes\/\">https:\/\/taracoleman.com\/5-healing-smoothie<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/taracoleman.com\/5-healing-smoothie-recipes\/\">-recipes\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Eggs<\/h3>\n<p>Ok, so you may be thinking that eggs already have protein, and that is 100% correct!\u00a0 The problem is that we typically serve it on an excess of bread or potatoes or under a heavy sauce. Although none of those things are bad, it is a missed opportunity to start your day full of nutrients. Trade in the starchy carbs for filling veggies and consider adding these boosters for more flavor and protein to your omelet:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shredded chicken (or other leftovers from the night before)<\/li>\n<li>Feta (or other flavorful cheeses)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Shredded Chicken with Baked Eggs &amp; Salsa Recipe<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13439 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" data-src=\"http:\/\/rtdesigngroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Eggs-200x300-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Find the recipe at: <a href=\"https:\/\/realfoodbydad.com\/shredded-chicken-with-baked-eggs-and-salsa\/\">https:\/\/realfoodbydad.com\/shredded-chicken-with-baked-eggs-and-salsa\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Vegan<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes vegans can get the short end of the stick when it comes to protein-based breakfasts. However, if you get a little creative you can find that there are great plant-based options that are packed with protein. Try adding:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tofu<\/li>\n<li>Quinoa<\/li>\n<li>Black beans\/lentils<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Southwest Tofu Scramble Recipe<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13438 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"243\" data-src=\"http:\/\/rtdesigngroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Tofu-300x243-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Find the recipe at: <a href=\"https:\/\/minimalistbaker.com\/southwest-tofu-scramble\/\">https:\/\/minimalistbaker.com\/southwest-tofu-scramble\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.totalgymdirect.com\/high-protein-breakfast-ideas\">High Protein Breakfast Ideas<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.totalgymdirect.com\">Total Gym Pulse<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High Protein Breakfast Ideas Is breakfast really that important?
