A five-minute high-protein breakfast for a GLP-1 plan

A high-protein breakfast for a GLP-1 plan can take five minutes. Here are two: a yogurt bowl with no cooking at all, and a quick egg scramble for mornings with a little more time.

Option one: Greek yogurt bowl (no cooking)

You'll need

• A cup of plain Greek yogurt
• A handful of berries, fresh or frozen
• A spoonful of nuts or seeds
• A little honey or cinnamon, if you like

Steps

1. Spoon the yogurt into a bowl.
2. Top with the berries and the nuts or seeds.
3. Add the honey or cinnamon and eat.

Option two: quick egg scramble

You'll need

• Two eggs
• A handful of spinach
• A little shredded cheese
• A slice of whole-grain toast, if you like

Steps

1. Warm a non-stick pan over medium heat and wilt the spinach.
2. Beat the eggs, pour them in and stir gently.
3. Cook until the eggs are firm, not runny, then add the cheese. USDA's guidance is to cook eggs until the yolk and white are firm, and egg dishes to 160°F.

Make it easier

Keep yogurt, eggs and frozen berries on your grocery list, and breakfast is already planned.
