My favorite quick and hot breakfast is Banana Oats Bake. Mix a mashed banana, 3 Tbsp. oats, 1 tsp. brown sugar (optional), and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Mash into the bottom of a bowl sprayed with cooking spray. Microwave for 90 seconds. Let sit 30 seconds and then invert or eat from bowl. You can top it with peanut butter for added protein.

I like to make cheesy eggs. Take a couple of eggs, slice and dice American or other cheese and mix together in a bowl. Microwave until eggs are done and cheese is melted.

Take some precooked diced ham, sold in stores, and throw it in a bowl. Throw in some shredded cheese with some chopped up spinach. You’ll need a microwave omelet maker. Crack open three eggs and agitate with a fork. Pour the eggs in both halves of the omelet maker. Microwave on high for one minute and 30 seconds. Remove omelet maker and add the ingredients from the bowl into both halves of the omelet maker. Put back in microwave for another minute on high. Now close the lid on the omelet maker and cook for another 30 seconds. Once complete, slide omelet out of maker onto plate. Add your toppings (in my case, salsa and sour cream) and enjoy. If you’re in a real hurry, toast up two pieces of Texas toast and make it an omelet sandwich to go.

I love making eggs in the microwave. I crack a couple eggs in a microwave safe dish (use egg whites if you'd like), add a tablespoon of water, whisk with a fork, and microwave for 1.5-2 minutes.

Boil almond milk in the microwave. Pour over a bowl of old fashioned oats containing peanut butter, sliced almonds, and a tablespoon of raw honey.

I like to make a healthy egg sandwich. Toast a whole wheat English muffin. Then take 1 or 2 egg whites and microwave them on a saucer plate covered with a bowl for about a minute. If you want a hard yolk, be sure to poke it so it runs with the whites. Place eggs on the English muffin. I usually spread strawberry jam on my muffin, others like butter. You can also add cheese while the egg is warm so it melts, and salt and pepper to taste.
