Dried Fruit Couscous This is truly a delicious and quick low fat breakfast recipe. I never thought of couscous as breakfast cereal type of thing, but there you are!
This is what you do: Combine the orange juice, apple juice, raisins, dried apricots, apples and cinnamon stick in a saucepan, and bring to boil. Stir in the couscous and orange zest, and then remove from the stove, letting stand for 5 minutes after that. Remove the cinnamon stick from the pan, and fluff the couscous with a fork. Mix the yogurt and honey in a small bowl. Divide the couscous into 4 equal portions, mixing it with the honey yogurt mix. Of course, you should only have 1 portion. ;-) Source: Low Fat in Nothing Flat Click here to go back to the top menu Quick Apple MuesliNow, muesli is regarded as a quick low fat breakfast recipe because it takes no significant time to prepare.

Banana French ToastBananas play a big role in many of my everyday quick low fat breakfast recipes. I find bananas a convenient food that can be easily combined with other things to make delicious meals, especially for breakfast.A banana french toast is a delicious quick low fat breakfast recipe that you can enjoy almost on a weekly basis (unless you go bananas and decide to have it everyday!)
This is what you do: Whisk together the egg substitute, skim milk, banana, sweetener and cinnamon till mixed well. Soak the bread slices into the mix on both sides. Coat a large nonstick frying pan with cannola oil spray. Melt the low fat butter, and add the soaked bread slices onto the pan till they turn golden. Serve immediately. 2 toasts = 1 serving. How's that for a quick low fat breakfast recipe!? Source: Low Fat in Nothing Flat
Maple Fruit ToppingThis is not a quick low fat breakfast recipe on its own. It is rather an "add on" to dishes such as the Banana French Toast contained in this page. You can pour this delicious topping on any toast based dish, but you must remember to take into account (add) the fat and calories (or points, if you're in Weight Watchers').
This is what you do: Melt the low fat butter or margarine over medium heat. Add the apple, cinnamon and nutmeg, stirring often for about 4 minutes (till the apple goes soft and tender). Stir in the apple juice, maple syrup and lemon juice till it boils. Simmer occasionally for another 3 minutes. Now your syrup is ready for your other delicious quick low fat breakfast recipes. Use with caution... enjoy but don't indulge to much. Just a bit. Source: Low Fat in Nothing Flat

This is what you do: Coat a nonstick pan with cannola based spray oil, and preheat the pan. Crunch the cornflakes in a bag to form fine crumbs, and place them on a large bowl.

Soak the bread slices into the egg white mixture, and then dredge each slice in the cereal crumbs to coat both sides. Place the bread slices on the pan till both sides are golden.

Sunshine Citrus JuiceSometimes I like just a drink as quick low fat breakfast recipe. Drinks are quick and easy to make, and delicious to have in the morning.
This is what you do: Squeeze the fruit juice from the grapefruits, oranges, lemons and limes and mix together. Add the mineral water. Tip: if you want to add extra flavor, you could make "flavored" ice cubes by extracting some juice from a lemon and an orange the night before, and placing the juice and bits of pulp in an ice cube mold.

It's tasty, but I find that I need something else to it in between breakfast and lunch. From a Weight Watcher's perspective, though, I can afford to eat something else on top of this delicious drink.
This is what you do: Mix the juices and mineral water together. Serve chilled. Tip: You can decorate your drink with an apple slice and an orange slice. Source: Eating for a Healthy Heart
Click here to go back to the top menu Strawberry Yogurt DrinkFrom all the drink-based quick low fat breakfast recipes, I think those with yogurt are the best. Yogurt based drinks tend to fill you up for longer periods. I feel this is a bit more of a substantial quick drink than the other ones I've listed above. But this is not only a quick low fat breakfast recipe. You can have it any time you want. In fact, I like having it at night when I'm feeling hungry
This is what you do: Mix the ingredients in a blender till smooth. Tip: If you want to make this recipe extra quick, you can substitute the strawberries and natural yogurt for low fat strawberry yogurt. Source: Eating for a Healthy Heart
Click here to go back to the top menu Winter Breakfast Fruit SaladThis is not really a quick low fat breakfast recipe. It's quick to eat, but it needs to be prepared 2 days before you do. The natural sugars from the dried fruits make the juices sweeter during the 2 days you leave the salad standing for.
This is what you do: Put the fruit into a glass bowl, and add the almonds and orange flower water, enough to cover the fruit. Cover the bowl, and keep it in the fridge for 2 days before serving. Tip: You can serve this fruit salad on its own, or with yogurt or muesli. Source: Eating for a Healthy Heart Click here to go back to the top menu
