Alternatively: get your bowl out @ night, pour in your dry oats, a dash of cinnamon, salt, brown sugar, dried fruit and nuts. Cover w/plastic wrap or a plate and leave on counter (dried goods, it’s ok). In morning: fill w/some water, pop in microwave, and eat while checking the weather online. (you can also put all the dry stuff in a glass container and take it to work, if your work microwave isn’t death-defying.)

Avocado toast = yum, add an egg for fancy times. Also, peanut butter and sliced apple or honey rolled up in a flour tortilla and then foil – portable.

You can make smoothies the night before as long as you don’t expect perfect slush frostiness. Yogurt + OJ + frozen mango or berries, immersion blender or mini food processor (THE BEST investment), cover cup, put in the fridge. In the morning – drink while applying mascara or finding your bus pass.
