I eat the same thing for breakfast almost every morning. It's easy, delicious, low-calorie and, while not quite as easy as pouring some cereal into a bowl, doesn't take too long.
1 cup frozen o'brien potatoes
up to 1/4 cup chopped bell peppers
2 Morning Star veggie sausage links
3-5 cherry tomatoes, sliced
a small sprinkle of dairy-free shredded cheese
Spray some Pam in a hot pan and throw in a cup of potatoes and the bell peppers. I chop up a pepper or two on the weekends and then freeze it so I'm not wasting valuable eating time on chopping up veggies during the week. I heat up the veggie sausage in the microwave to de-thaw it, but you could fry it up in a pan. Then I chop it up and throw it in with the potatoes. When everything is cooked, I pour it into a bowl and top with sliced tomatoes and shredded cheese. If I'm feeling extra hungry, I'll add an extra sausage (40 calories) or a slice of fakon (fake bacon, 40 calories). I will warn you, while the sausage is non-vegan approved, the fakon has been met with weird looks and mixed reviews. If you aren't vegan but trying to cut back on meat, you could even throw in an egg (about 100 calories). Also, I'm not a huge fan of fake cheese so I don't use a lot. I really only want a small cheese taste and a little goes a long way for me. I don't recommend pouring on a bunch of fake cheese your first time around the fake cheese block. You will probably end up hating it. Go easy.
