Turkey

• For the die-hard breakfast fans, most brands offer a turkey option for bacon and sausage. One serving of turkey bacon is approximately 30 percent lower in fat and calories than pork bacon.

Chicken

• Thaw chicken tenders the night before you go to bed. In the morning, saute the chicken in a little olive oil, chop and toss into an omelet. This healthy option is surprisingly quick, easy and tasty.

Salmon

• Often thought of as an indulgence, salmon is a great breakfast meat. The low-calorie, high-protein fish is low in saturated fat and packed with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

Pork Loin

• Many people shun pork, but pork loin is actually a healthy choice. One 4-oz. serving yields just 120 calories and just 2.5 g of fat. Chop up last night's leftovers into an omelet.

Eggs

• You may not think of eggs as meat, but the United States Department of Agriculture does, because eggs are high in protein. Eat your eggs with a slice of toast and you won't have to worry about the added fat and calories of sausage or bacon.
