Here's a post about breakfast.
I call it "cold oatmeal". Basically, it's rolled oats eaten as breakfast cereal:
8oz [a little over 2 cups] rolled oats-- I prefer quick (not instant), but whole rolled would work too.
.75oz [2 Tbsp] brown sugar-- because yum.
12oz [1.5 cups] milk-- I like whole milk, but skim or 2% is usually the same price.
This is my breakfast. The kids eat a smaller portion of essentially the same-- though they likely add a higher proportion of sugar, lol, since I generally let them make their own. One kiddo can't have milk, so he'll make his with water instead (or, sometimes I'll buy some almond milk and he'll use that). The Significant Other, she often skips breakfast, and doesn't care for oatmeal; when she does do breakfast, it will often be toast or some new creation from leftovers.
I also give the kids a whole fruit after their oatmeal. More like, they'll beg me to give it to them, haha. Anyway, right now that's oranges, and they both wanted theirs sliced.
[Pictured is the younger kiddo's portion.]
I, admittedly, don't always eat as healthfully as them, so I don't always eat my fruit. When I do, I'll often eat it for a lunch-snack, since I'm not usually very hungry at noon.

Leftovers I have no idea how to calculate, and SO hasn't eaten breakfast yet, so...let's assume She has toast with avocados (something she's done before):
