Mornings can be tough, especially when you’re trying to stick to a weight loss plan. Between rushing to work, hitting the gym, or just trying to get the kids ready for school, cooking a healthy, protein-packed breakfast can feel like another chore entirely. But according to fitness coach Trent Harrison, there’s no excuse to skip the most important meal of the day—especially if you’re focused on slimming down.

@trizzlemanfitness The best Trader Joe’s Breakfast options – High protein, low calorie! For breakfast, you have 2 options: skip it or make it high protein. I prefer the high protein option and a minum of 30g of protein before 10am! #traderjoes #breakfast #protein  #meals  #fitness original sound – Trent Harrison


In a recent TikTok, Harrison shared his favorite Trader Joe’s breakfast hacks for people who want something quick, easy, and high in protein. Whether you’re too tired to cook, don’t know what to make, or just want to simplify your morning routine, these grab-and-go options are designed to keep you full, fueled, and on track with your weight loss goals. From crispy maple chicken sausages to protein-packed oats and versatile egg wraps, Harrison’s picks prove that healthy breakfasts don’t have to be complicated or time-consuming.

Harrison emphasizes that breakfast should include at least 30 grams of protein to fuel your day and support weight loss. “Wrap up all your excuses, throw them in the trash,” he says, “because these are my favorite breakfast options you need to grab from Trader Joe’s.”

1. Egg Wraps

One of Harrison’s go-to items is Trader Joe’s egg wraps, which offer 8 grams of protein for just 60 calories per wrap. They’re versatile enough to make breakfast tacos, burritos, hash browns, eggs, or sausage wraps—perfect for a quick, protein-packed morning meal.

2. Maple Chicken Breakfast Sausage

For a simple way to boost protein, Harrison recommends maple chicken breakfast sausages. Cooked in the air fryer for a crispy finish, each sausage contains 10 grams of protein for 90 calories. They’re perfect on their own, or paired with eggs in an omelette for a hearty, filling breakfast.

3. High-Protein Oats

While traditional oats aren’t high in protein, Harrison suggests a clever hack: use unsweetened oats and mix in protein powder. Add fresh berries and a sprinkle of cinnamon, and you’ve got a 30-gram protein breakfast that’s both nutritious and delicious.
