You could try making your own muesli. I make one from flaked almonds (Americans have a different name for them but I'm sure you know what I mean), pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, some almond flour and a spoon of raw oat flakes. It's great with a little sweetener and some cream.

I hear you about the egg thing. I eat them once in a while. I got a great recipe for almond bread here and also a recipe for a ricotta quiche thing from Dana Carpenders book.

The Atkins cereals are good (I've had the almond and the blueberry), but for granola try the Flax-o-Meal Low Carb success. Wonderful!

How about some French Toast made with lc bread and one of the LC syrups or jams? I am not a breakfast eater.. Always hated to look at food in the mornings. Dr. Atkins said to not go more than 6 waking hours without eating something. I know I don't get enough veggies so I started having 6 oz of V8 juice about mid morning.. Been doing that for a while and it hasn't stalled me. It has 1 net carb per ounce. I've lost 60 pounds since August so I'm not complaining.. LOL

morning start

My target had some Morning start creamy cinnamon buns bars on sale.. reg. $8.00+ for only 2.99! I bought 2 boxes..and they are yummy... 14Carbs/8 ECC(Protein power deducts fiber from carb total) Now I wish I bought more, but it was my first 'atkin' purchase.. so I was hesitant.. Now.. is it good enough to pay $8.00 for? Um... not for me...

For me, eating more consistantly is a challenge... I have the habit of going all day w/out eating, then eating at night.... so all this eating is rather challenging!

HTH

They're good, though. I've got a blueberry brand laying around that's awfully tasty.
