300 Calories Breakfast Meal

Wonder what 300 calories looks like? 300 calories look drastically different when you’re eating in instead of dining out. Choosing healthier, more nutritious foods–at home and away–means you can eat much more food and still lose weight.

Here are some examples of morning meals that each weigh about 300 calories. Healthy and quick homemade meals pack whole grains, fresh fruit, and protein–a filling combination that will keep you fuller longer. You could only eat a fraction of that in the fast food joints.
