This is my go-to way to start my day. I don’t really eat a lunch (I would much rather snack around than eat one large meal midday), so I tend to eat a larger breakfast and dinner instead.

2 eggs w basil and parsley: 150 cal, ~13g protein

1/4th cup of 4% cottage cheese: 50 cal, 6g protein

Half of a Schar gluten free bagel: 150 cal, 2g protein, ~4g fiber

Mix of cherry tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and cucumber that I measure with my heart: ~50cal total (if that), plenty of micronutrients, a modest addition of fiber (maaaybe 2g)

If I was willing to ditch the bagel, or had more options for protein/“skinny” bagels, I could get some more bang for my buck in terms of calories probably, but I like bread and my gluten free options are a bit limited, so I’m sticking with what tastes decent.
