My standard breakfast at the moment is a bircher protein enriched muesli. 

The night before I mix a 1/2 cup whole grain (no sugar) toasted muesli, with 2 1/2 tablespoons of whey protein isolate, 1/3 cup of organic plain yogurt, 1/2 tea spoon of cinnamon, small handful of slivered almonds and a grated apple.  Mix and set in the fridge at least over night.

I often make a larger batch and will last as long as the yogurt remains fresh.  I will often add either blueberries or goji berries to the top when I serve in the morning.  I find that if you add too much whey protein the mix becomes sticky and unpleasant, if this is the case add a little bit of either water or milk to the mixture and that will soften it up.

Often I will have a whey protein smoothy with similar ingredients to the above except the muesli and add organic milk and more protein, this way I can cut down the carb intake a little and increase the protein intake.
