At BlogHer 2010 I met with Jimmy Dean’s The Sun. The sun is a big golden light that all the planets revolve around and he has all kinds of information and knowledge about breakfast. The Sun commercials are quite humorous and when I tell people that I met the sun, they laugh! Not because it is a crazy thought that I met The Jimmy Dean Sun, but because internally they are remembering one of those commercials.
I had a lot of fun talking to the Sun, we chatted for about 30 minutes while the camera men were getting set up. I was most intrigued by the fact that he lived in Washington State for a period of time.
At BlogHer everyone had the opportunity to taste new Jimmy D’s breakfast foods. We were some of the first people to ever try them. They are lower in calories than you would expect any out of the box, into the microwave breakfasts could possible be.
The New Jimmy D’s Griddle Sticks:
These have 7 grams of protein, 8 grams of sugar and only 6 grams of fat. They are sausage wrapped up in a pancake with only 160 calories.
The New Jimmy D’s French Toast Griddlers:
These have 8 grams of protein, 6 grams of sugar and 8 grams of fat. They are french toast sandwiches with turkey sausage in the middle with only 210 calories. Remember that the sandwiches are bigger in size than the griddle sticks.
I tried both of these at blogher, and when I didn’t know how many calories were in them, all I did was have a bite. I was very worried about over eating while I was at the conference so I had a little bit here and a little bit there. I could have easily gotten away with eating the whole thing. After trying both samples, if I had to pick a favorite it would be the Griddle Sticks.

Our breakfast routine is cereal and toast or toaster pastries. A Hot breakfast would be so much better.

My breakfast routine tends to change depending on the day. I also like varied foods for breakfast. Cold cereal is what I eat most of the time, but Jimmy Dean sandwiches are one of the foods I trade off with now and then.

THE ONLY THING I HAVE FOR BREAKFAST IS COFFEE
We have quick to fix breakfasts during the week but enjoy a more relaxed breakfast time on the weekends.
Easy – my husband has tea and the same cereal EVERY day and my son fixes his own. I grab yogurt and take it to work with me.
I like to have a variety of breakfast products on hand (both in the freezer and pantry) so everyone can have whatever “they are in the mood for” during the week. Thanks for the review and giveaway!

Breakfast on a weekday consistes of a huge mug of coffee and either a granola bar or some cookies. On the weekend, I like to treat myself to french toast or an omelette. Thanks.
Weekdays, my breakfast routine is generally oatmeal with flax seed and lots of grapes (I’ve canned 20 quarts from my grape vines). Weekends, unless I’m going somewhere, I’ll generally have scrambled eggs with salsa or sunnyside up eggs on whole wheat toast, with fruit.

Breakfast routine. stagger to the kitchen and blindly feel around for the coffee grinder. Make coffee. Drink cofee. Rummage around for leftovers and vitamins. Most likely this will be Forbidden rice and chicken which I always have around.
coffee and cereal often

Every morning I scramble three eggs with ground sausage. I then combine the cooked food with grated cheese, sourcream, and advocado slices.
Weekdays are quick breakfast – cereal, frozen waffles, toaster pastries, etc. Everyone picks what they want. On weekends I fix a complete breakfast and everyone sits down together to eat.
