drink me under the table

so, i am experimenting with something fast and nutritious for breakfast. the rule is, it doesn't need to be cooked, it has to taste good, it must have some nutritive value, and i shouldn't get hungry for at least 3-4 hours after ingesting.

so, i went to vitamin shoppe and got little packages of a soy powder, mix with milk item. i bought several flavors.

they were pretty good, esp. the chocolate. so i bought a big can of it.

i mix it with a banana. yes for taste, nutrition, and no cooking. but i get hungry within an hour.

today, i mixed milk, banana, chocolate mix, hersheys(i put too much milk in it) and 1/2 cup of oatmeal. the vitamix shreds everything. you want to liquify stone, put some in a vitamix on high. the jury is still out, as i am drinking my second glass now (i told you i put too much milk in it!). you can't taste the oatmeal, which is good. it has all the above qualities, we are just waiting for duration of satiation (i just wanted to use the word).

stay tuned

good luck with that. I also could use a fast easy breakfast. I'm so busy in the morning with the kids that I often don't have time to eat until after Amy is off to school and by then it's 9:00 am! I like soy powder mixes. Yummy and healthy!

btw, i usually get hungry after just 2 hours all the time. i just eat a lot of small meals through out the day. i can't imagine going for 4 hours without eating! yikes! :-)

i started feeling hungry 3 1/2 hours later. that's good. i didn't eat until 4 hours later.
