Its warming up outside and that means you will probably be breaking out your swimsuits before too long. Along with working out make sure you are eating healthy. This doesn't mean you have to eat teeny tiny portions. It is possible to eat really satisfying food that is also slimming for your meals and snacks.
Here are some ideas for breakfast that are about 300 calories each.
Chocolate-Cherry Smoothie: Blend 1 cup low-fat milk with 1/2 cup unsweetened tart cherries and 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder. Serve with 1 slice toasted whole-grain bread spread with 2 teaspoons peanut butter.
Bacon and Egg Sandwich: Beat 1 egg with dried oregano and black pepper to taste. Pour into a microwave-safe bowl coating with nonstick cooking spray and microwave on high 1 minute. Top with 2 slices cooked Canadian bacon and microwave 20 seconds more. Top half of a toasted English muffin with egg, bacon, 2 tomato slices and remaining half.
Apple-Walnut Pancakes with Brown Sugar Yogurt: Mix 1/4 cup whole-grain pancake mix with water according to package directions. Stir in 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Pour batter into skillet to make two 5-inch pancakes; cook 2 minutes a side. Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt with 2 teaspoons brown sugar. Top pancakes with yogurt mixture and 1/2 cup chopped apple.
