What do you eat in the morning?

Published

I used to work 11a-11p and now I am going to 7a-7p. My other job is from 6a-6p, so I usually get up at around 4:30am. My 7a-7p job has about a 40 min commute. I find it really hard to eat at this time in the morning and right now I'm forcing down some yogurt. I also do not want to miss up the opportunity to eat because I might not get that chance once I get to work. From my experience in the ER as a night shifter, people start trickling in around 0600-0630.

So, what do y'all eat in the morning? I'm thinking about eating on my 40 min commute but I really don't want to stop anywhere, so I'd like something portable. I also like to eat something a little more hearty as my first meal of the day - eggs, bacon/sausage, toast, some fruit, etc.

Usually I'll drink an ice cold rice protein mix with almond milk on the drive to work.

During report I eat raw almonds.

Rice protein mix? The protein of rice?

Exactly. They separate the protein from the carbohydrates using an enzyme. I just enjoy it in comparison to the traditional protein drinks, it's easy on my digestive system.
