Whole grains aren't just for dinner — flavor them sweetly for breakfast. Take a cup of cooked quinoa, add a little maple syrup and cinnamon, and top with Greek yogurt, tons of diced fresh fruit, and nuts for a filling, fiber-packed bowl. Not into quinoa? Try amaranth, buckwheat, or even brown rice.

1 cup cooked quinoa: 5.2 grams
1 teaspoon maple syrup: 0 grams
1 teaspoon cinnamon: 1.2 grams
6 ounces nonfat strawberry Greek yogurt: .5 grams
4 strawberries, sliced: one gram
1/2 of an apple, diced: 2.2 grams
2 tablespoons walnuts: 1.1 gram

Total fiber: 11.1 grams

High fiber and high protein are great ways to start the morning. I'm going to try one of these each morning. For the smoothies, try adding a high quality protein powder.\u00a0 http://www.nutritionfix.com/protein/shakes/ultimate-iceman-supplements-ultimate-lean-protein-vanilla-2lb.html
