2 point breakfasts?

I used to do a 4 or 5 point breakfast, but I find I'm doing better with a 2 point breakfast, and saving the other points for dinner (less late night snacking). Currenty I'm eating Kashi Heart to Heart cereal with a little milk. I tend to get bored with breakfasts and like to switch it up.

What are some other 2 point breakfasts I can try? Thanks!

Canteloupe/honeydew melon - this is the best breakfast as it contains a ton of water.

Banana

Active yogurt & Fiber One Cereal mixed in.

Re: 2 point breakfasts?

I usually have oatmeal but little milk (make it with water), so the oatmeal is 2 points...

be careful with these. i've noticed (as well as my friends and DH) that these bars can cause some stomach issues (gas pains and bloating, etc).

for a 2 pt breakfast, try a WW english muffin with jam or reduced calorie butter or peanut butter. i *think* the special K frozen waffles are 2 pts as well (for 2 waffles).

i usually eat oatmeal with a little bit of fruit.

I had a great 2 pt breakfast this morning (and set the blender on fire in the process)

Fruit smoothie (makes 4 servings)

1/2 pks silken tofu
3/4 cup strawberries or other fruit
1/2 banana
1/2 cup OJ (I used crushed pineapples in juice instead)
2tbsp wheate germ (I added this for fiber and vitamins)
blend well

add 1 cup ice, blend, serve immediately (can also be frozen)
you can also add honey or splenda.

I eat these also. I don't have a problem. I read that is recommended to drink a lot of water with it if you are going to eat that much water.

They're delicious! I love them!!

I have had stomach issues when I didn't drink enough water. They also sell them in BULK at Costco!

Re: 2 point breakfasts?

I either have:

1. A light multigrain Thomas' English Muffin or weight watchers whole wheat bread (2 slices) with I can't believe its not butter spray; and a light string cheese (2 points total)

or

2. A packet of oatmeal (2 points) which I make with water.
