Start With Some Powerful Protein

Protein, a missing component in many morning meals, helps you go strong and stay focused. Go lean with protein choices: a slice or two of Canadian bacon, an egg or two or egg whites, a slice of deli meat or cheese, a container of low-fat Greek yogurt or peanut butter on toast. Think outside of the breakfast box: Microwave a quesadilla on a wheat tortilla with black beans or enjoy a tofu scramble with chopped vegetables and grated mozzarella cheese.
