Isn't an Egg McMuffin with ham, egg and cheese a decent breakfast?

My Mc's breakfast is usually the 2 burrito meal with a medium Coke. I

figured it out before, and it's about 966 calories. I don't remember the

sodium/cholesterol. I've been going to bed later this week than I was a couple

of weeks ago, so I'm a little burnt out when the alarm goes off in the morning.

I don't think I've ridden my bike this week eithere(can't remember if I rode

Monday or not). I need to get back to that at least.

really well -- so when you have one of those days when you're running late, you

just grab a baggie from the freezer & microwave for less than 2 minutes and you

have 'road food' or you can carry it to work & eat there ... you know at that

point that you've got a high fiber muffin or wrap, real cheese, maybe an omega 3

egg or organic egg, etc.

I tried to freeze home-made breakfast muffins before, but I must not have

wrapped them correctly. I used wax paper and the eggs got all

discolored...blech.

I like the tuna can idea, though!
