1/2 melon (cantalope, honey due, any melon that goes)
after clearing out seeds, fill center with cottage cheese.
Add some topping crunchy with few nuts (walnuts, pecans, etc)
*this is what I eat hour or more before heavy exercise class. I can't really eat a dinner before working out class and I want to have strength to last when classes are from 5-8pm. sometimes.
This is my menu recipie that I been learning to cook with to find ways to eat healthier and losing weight and simple. I am making it a blog for way to record for myself, but also let others maybe have meal ideas for those looking for different ideas as i look at yours. Some Vegetarian, some cutting down sugar, some trying to be balanced. etc.

#22 - Easy Sweet Breakfast
chop banana in bowl
add honey on top
cinnamon
and something crunchy like granola or cereal for little crunch
*as a note, during finding control of my diet, for those questioning the amount of sweets I use. I do have a sweet tooth that was way worse than this kind of meal, so I am doing things in small steps to replace unhealthy things and currently my step is to try replacing white refine sugar or at least try not to eat sugar during day till very end of day is my goal for now, later on be removing all white sugar, and later on maybe less sweets. But this replacing sweets with honey, I have lost weight so far. So this plan has been working for me, otherwise if I avoid 100% I end up exploding later.
