She is not big on cooking in the morning. She is a teacher as well so she needs something portable if at all possible.

  1. BigJim Says:

    Large Tortilla (26g carbs) with scrambled eggs (we like Costco Egg Substitute!) Fast and easy.

  2. The Professor Says:

    Well just eat some meat you preparred the day beforelike cold chicken. Maybe with some cheese. Some cultures eat fish in the morning like smoked salmon. Ort a can of tuna. Tose things are easy and would work.

  3. ? terry g ? Says:

    Light yogurt, and rye toast with butter, cheese.

    When I was gestational diabetic for breakfast I’d eat:

    2 slices of whole wheat toast (about 13 carbs a piece) and 2 slices of turkey bacon.

    2 corn tortillas with 2 or 3 scrambled eggs whites with a little cheese or ham.

    1/2 large bagel w/cream cheese

    2 Tablespoons of peanut butter with 2 slices of whole wheat toast

    This is all I can think of at the moment. I hope it helps.

    It is pretty easy to get 30 carbs for breakfast. Oatmeal is around 27, cold cereal with 1/2 cup of milk is about 30 (depending on the type of cereal).
    1/2 bagel is usually 25
    one english muffin (make it a sandwich with egg and cheese and a slice of meat if you would like, stick it in the freezer and micro it in the mornings)
    fruit smoothy – could be anywhere from 30 for a cup on up depending on who makes it

  6. Tim W Says:

    Hard boiled egg(s) with whole grain bread.

  7. dingding Says:

    3/4 cup Cheerios + 1/2 cup milk = 32g
    Peanut Butter sandwich made on small bread = 35g
    Oatmeal packets = 20-25g
    Granola Bars = 25-35g
    Pint of milk = 27g
    Lean Pockets = 25-ish g
    Toast = 17g per slice
    Cake donut = 17-20g
    Light yogurt = 15g

    Microwaved beef wiener wrapped with a whole-wheat low-carb tortilla.
