Darker honeys tend to have more antioxidants (and minerals), e.g., wildflower or better yet buckwheat honey

Frozen veggies and frozen berries are always good choices (thaw in microwave)

Make sure to get the plain (unsweetened!) whole yogurt, which you can sweeten (if need be) with whey protein power, berries, or stevia

Various nut butters, such as almond butter, are good sources of energy

Juicing veggies is another great way to obtain vital nutrients

Eggs (preferably Omega 3 enhanced), containing fat and protein, go well with veggies and meats (yet watch out for sodium nitrite/nitrate in bacon, ham, and sausages)

Try to avoid grains, breads, and cereals (pancakes and waffles with syrup are hormonal disasters!)

  Yeah, one can tend to get stuck in a breakfast rut. As we noted on the show, grabbing a big helping of grain-based carbs is all-too-typical and easy, but definitely not very healthy. Just think of all the things you can do with Omega-3 egg omelets, Tina! Of course, if you’re averse to eggs, then juicing your otherwise omelet-bound veggies would be a good alternate (though eating them whole is better, albeit perhaps more time-consuming). Like I mentioned, I’m a big fan of whey protein powder, berries, and nut butters in the morning, because I tend to tire of Atkins’ style eggs and bakey stuff (though I realize he recommended alternatives to that too).
  
  I believe Kevin has tweeted lots of lower carb (and thus higher fat) meal ideas. Any recipe can actually be modified to be healthy, or at least healthier. Epicurious.com has lots of recipe ideas to work with, for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The key is to make sure that you’re not overdoing the carbs (and the ones you are consuming are nutritious, fruits and veggies mostly), make sure you’re getting adequate protein, and that most of your energy needs are coming from fat.
  
  Cheers,
  W
