🍳Organisation Tips
I think the biggest struggle is having time to fit a Slimming club breakfast into our schedule. I've done many things to get organised before work or morning exercises, so thought I'd share them if they helped you too.
- Weigh your cereals the night before and store in sealed porridge containers. I use these ones, or a mug style
- Mix or prepare any recipes the night where possible
- Have a full English cooking on low while you're getting ready or doing any morning exercise routines. I.e, pan frying eggs and bacon on low
- Try not to make a big thing out of it. It's better to get fuel rather than overcomplicate itif you're struggling for breakfast time ideas
🍞Using Allowances for a Slimming World Breakfast?
Disclaimer: This is an unofficial page and has no affiliation or endorsement from Slimming World. Slimming World's website can be found at https://www.slimmingworld.co.uk/
*Any syn values are personal estimates and not verified by Slimming World.
The other issue I often worry about is if I use my healthy extra A and healthy extra B choice allowances so soon in the day. So where possible, I like to try and save them for teas and coffees or sometimes a late-night craving.
It really depends on how you and your body works. For example, right now, I am loving the simplicity of 50g of All Bran with skimmed milk for my allowance. But I think the changes in the seasons also play a massive factor too.
And with that in mind, you'll find a good mix of unofficial Slimming World recipes for breakfast below. Some of which you may not have even seen before, including some unusual but incredible combinations.
🍌How to Stay Full For Longer
I'm the kind of girl who can't work on an empty stomach. So, for example, if you see me over at my DIY channel, The Carpenter's Daughter, I can't run on light breakfasts if I know I'll be away from the kitchen.
To truly keep me satisfied, I opt for recipes fuelled with plenty lean protein, such as bacon and eggs. Occasionally an additional omelette. Deep down, I'm not a massive fan of cereals, but they're ok if I know I can whip something else up dead on 12.
Also, as of 2020, I've learnt that my body can be more hungry when focusing more on carbs. That's why I try to limit them where possible. Carbs can be a vicious cycle, raising blood sugar levels. So that's something to bear in mind!
Another thing worth recommending is that after I'd do a Gillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred exercise, each morning I would have a huge fry up. And I still kept losing weight. So don't assume you need to eat something tiny!
💡Unofficial Slimming World Friendly Breakfast Ideas
Note: You can get the recipe card for each by clicking on the names!
1. All Day Breakfast Traybake
My Slimming All Day Breakfast Tray Bake is full is flavour, and more importantly, fuel to help keep you going.
I often see people on Instagram add sausages, mushrooms, ditch the eggs and so on. Just tailor it to your tastes and still have a free breakfast.
It also serves a family of four in one large baking tray. It's possibly the best breakfast here for feeding a family with ease.
2. Crustless Bacon & Egg Pie
Another healthy breakfast that is full of protein is my Bacon & Egg pie. I can't tell you how amazing this recipe is!
Once you've grilled your bacon and placed at the bottom of a baking dish, the rest is a piece of cake. Simply create an egg mix with cheese and fat free yoghurt, pour on top with a good sprinkling of grated low fat cheese.
It's so versatile for any time of day. You could also add onions and mushrooms to the bottom layer.
3. Low Fat Bircher Muesli
If you're looking for something a little bit more refreshing than Slimming Overnight Oats, then I'd definitely try this bircher muesli instead, which only takes a couple of minutes the night before.
This great breakfast is tasty, full of dried mixed fruit and measured seeds.
Another great addition would be to drizzle some no added sugar fruit syrup on top.
4. Slimming Kedgeree
Out of all the delicious breakfast recipes that keep me full for longer, this lean kedgeree is pretty damn high.
It's a filling breakfast with curried rice, herbs and spices and is FULL of eggs and haddock for protein.
It's also made in a large pan using the rice absorption cooking method, so no need to drain or worry or over cooking.
5. Low Fat Oat & Cinnamon Cookies
For breakfast biscuits on the go, these Oat & Cinnamon Cookies are also great for making in advance.
They're essentially blender cookies, with a mix of oats, an egg, sweetener and spices. Then, simply line a baking sheet and spoon out 8 cookie rounds.
You could also count a drizzle of choc shot for extra flavour, or even make them into ginger biscuits!
6. Baked Oats With Carrot & Parsnip Oats
If you have a sweet tooth while trying to eat a healthy meal, these carrot cake baked oats with parsnip are so deliciously warming.
Although often I make baked oats for supper as a pudding alternative. Just mix the grated vegetables with oats and an egg and bake in the oven!
They're great with a good dollop of yogurt and fresh fruit too.
7. Chorizo & Butternut Hash
When it comes to choosing a favourite Slimming breakfast, my Chorizo and Butternut Hash is number 1!
It's a one pan wonder, beautifully caramelized in an oven-friendly frying pan with a couple of eggs cracked on top. If you love the sweetness of squash with a smoked paprika vibe.
This would also work great with diced sweet potato, too.
8. Classic Omelette
Although a simple classic for a healthy diet, I found that not everyone knows how to make a low fat omelette.
However, on a slimming club, if your pan's non-stick isn't looking its best, you will probably need a new one.
Once you've sorted that out, it's incredibly simple and as easy as 1, 2, 3! There's also a video guide in the recipe to help you.
9. Spiced Carrot & Parsnip Porridge
Don't be fooled by the sound of carrot and parsnip, because this porridge is so soothing and warming.
Don't forget, the extra veg bulks it up and makes me feel fuller for longer and a dash of vanilla essence if you wish.
10. Hash Browns
These healthy hash browns are my most tagged Instagram recipe ever!
Most weekend mornings, I feel delighted to see everyone's full English breakfasts in various ways.
Keep them coming! 🙂
11. Skinny Raspberry & Mint Smoothie
Smoothies really shouldn't be a taboo. Which is why I developed this delicious Raspberry & Mint recipe.
It's so refreshing and so quick, blitzed in the blender.
12. Oven Baked Porridge Oats
These Slimming oven baked oats are an old favourite to really pimp up basic porridge.
I often opt for natural zero calorie sweeteners too. However, if you don't want to wait, I have a similar 1 minute microwave SW baked oats version here too.
13. Corned Beef Hash Bake
Providing you use frylight and low fat corned beef, this is such a tasty breakfast!
I've cooked it in oven and microwave for quickness. Both are equally delicious, but I do prefer the crispyiness when baked.
Using butternut squash instead of potatoes with tomatoes and onions, this is also a Keto corned beef worth trying!
14. Slow Cooker Porridge
This certainly isn't a quick breakfast. However, the reason I developed slow cooker oatmeal was because I often think of good intentions.
But, when I wake up the next morning, it's all out of the window. By making slow cooked overnight oats recipe, I'm more likely to eat it.
15. Potato and Sausage Bake
A tray bake full of sausages and potato is always pleasing any time of day!
16. Avocado on Toast with Poached Eggs
I love how balanced avocado on toast with egg is it has a combination of healthy fats, protein and fibre.
17. Skinny Skillet Hashbrown
For an easy, less fiddly SW hash brown, then you might enjoy making it in a skillet, then oven.
I do recommend making it with a food processor though to make it much quicker.
18. Potato Kugel
If you're looking for cheap meals in the morning, this vegetarian Kugel grated potato tray bake with onions and cheese is so filling!
19. Root Vegetable Rosti
For an alternative breakfast bake, then why not try this root vegetable rosti using Fry Light?
It's a great way to sneaky veggies, sat on a bed of spinach and topped with a poached egg.
20. Unofficial Slimming World Pancakes {No Banana}
One of my most popular healthy unofficial Slimming World breakfast recipes are these homemade 3 ingredient oatmeal pancakes {no banana} using oat flour. Simply mill porridge oats with a blender to a fine powder or use Original Ready Brek! Note, this recipe uses your healthy extras, otherwise, it will need counting.
Then top with your favourite fruit, maybe count some maple syrup, peanut butter or a drizzle of choc shot. I usually get a lot of people tagging me on a Sunday morning to say they've made these, which really makes my day!
21. Croque Monsieur {Cheese & Ham Sandwich}
A Slimming World easy breakfast is these cheese and ham Croque Monsieurs made with wholemeal bread, inspired by our many holidays to France.
It's important that you use slices from a smaller 400 g pack, otherwise, your syn values may be different.
22. Syn Free Ham, Egg & Cheese Muffin Cups
Inspired by Rachel Khoo, wholemeal slices of bread are made larger with a rolling pin, then placed in a muffin tin and filled with egg, ham and cheese.
It's a fun recipe that uses both of your healthy extra choices. And where you don't have ham, you could swap for rashers of bacon instead!
23. Cottage Cheese Crustless Quiche
You could make a Slimming World style breakfast quiche by adding cooked sausages, bacon and cheese!
24. Syn Free Crustless Cheese & Onion Tart
For something slightly different, this Slimming World vegetarian breakfast idea is made of layered cheese and onion. It's also great for lunch time, too.
25. Bacon & OXO Gravy Sandwiches
Love the sound of Ross from Friends and his Moist Maker turkey sandwich? Then you'll LOVE trying these OXO bacon sandwiches!
26. Chicken & Turmeric Scrambled Egg Hash
Full of protein and courgettes, these Slimming World scrambled eggs in a bowl are pimped up with chicken and turmeric.
With all SW recipes, the best way to eat them is to make sure a 3rd of your plate is healthy vegetables and this would taste amazing with additional red peppers, peas, kale and other free foods.
27. Baked Oats {in the Microwave}
My microwave version of baked Slimming World oats in a cup! It's an easy light breakfast on the go.
28. Air Fryer Breakfast Casserole
This may not look pretty, but this air-fried mix of onions, courgette, cheese and milk with paprika, salt and black pepper is tasty. And incredibly easy!
Just mix it all together in an oven-safe bowl and bake straight in the air fryer for 10 minutes.
29. Slow Cooker Rice Pudding
Topped with fresh raspberries, leftovers of this vegan rice pudding can be eaten for free when using milk as part of your allowance.
It's simple - just dump everything in the slow cooker and leave to cook.
30. Chorizo Shakshuka
By counting your chorizo and swapping oil for Fry Light, you instantly have a tasty Tunisian breakfast.
This one pan wonder is also full of tomatoes, eggs, veggies and more importantly, flavour!
31. Borridge
This crispy bacon porridge has a delicious salted caramel taste when sweetness is added.
32. Cheese & Onion Muffins
Sliced and buttered along your bacon, egg and beans, these savory muffins use leftover mash and oat flour to bind.
They're also versatile enough to make cheesy great dumplings in your pot of stew.
33. Cereal Bars from your Slimming World diet Meetings
If you don't have time to do any prep first thing, then I recommend picking up some low calorie Hi-Fi bars from your local SW meeting, but they're also exclusively for sale in Iceland.
They've usually got some grams of fibre in them and can be eaten as part of your allowance.
34. Overnight Oats for 1
This is an oldie for a goodie. Mix together 40g of oats with fresh fruit, 100g of fat free yogurt and sweetener in a container and leave overnight.
If you want to loosen the mixture a little, then stir in a couple of tablespoons of coconut milk, which also adds some lovely flavour
35. Cottage Cheese Pancakes
With just 3 simple ingredients or eggs, oats and fat free cottage cheese, these healthy pancakes are SO easy and filling!
All you need is a mini blender to grind the oats, then mix in the wet ingredients. And they're estimated as Syn Free if you use your Healthy Extra B (the oats!).
