All my life I have had to watch my weight and what I eat. I suspect that is the same story for at least 50% of women! I love to eat....often, it isn't what I eat that is the problem its the quantity - usually.
Here is a breakfast that I have found very satisfying and packs a mean punch of fiber and protein and keeps me full longer and my sweet tooth satisfied:
1/2 cup of Dannon Light & Fit Vanilla yogurt (I buy the big tub) - 55 calories
3/4 Cup Kashi Go lean Crisp cereal(it seems more like a granola) - toasted berry crumble - 180 calories
Mix together
2 sliced of pan fried bacon - drained on a paper towel of course - 80 calories (that's both slices combined - how great is that?!)
Total Calories: 315
What do you get?:
17.5 grams protein!
8 grams of fiber
Think about this - you get yogurt, cereal and bacon for 315 calories and those calories are made up of protein and fiber!
I love a lot of crunch in my yogurt and this combination is perfect for me. If its too much crunch for you and you just like a little bit - reduce the cereal and remember to reduce the calories as well.
Enjoy!
Okay, now I'm mad that I already had breakfast this morning, and want to eat this instead. Sounds delish!
