Porridge with prunes, pears and cinnamon in the winter.

Fresh fruit or high-protein granola with kefir, fruit and a tiny drizzle of honey in the Summer.

Sometimes it'll be very high on protein, but also on fats: bacon (back, UK-style), sausage and egg.

The key is to get away from ultra-processed food, and I'm Type 2 diabetic so I want to reduce the amount of sugar and carbs I have. For me, I normally feel fructose > lactose > carbs > sucrose > desxtrose, and often replace lactose (dairy) with non-dairy equivalents, or make sure it has some other benefit (like kefir).

I want to make sure I feel full through to lunchtime, so protein is useful. I don't mind some carbs, if it means I have something I enjoy and don't feel I need to snack mid-morning.

TLDR: I avoid breakfast cereals (other than some high-protein granolas), add fruits like prunes, pears, maybe banana, and I don't have bread or other ultra-processed foods.
