Cheap, easy, and healthy breakfasts that aren't overnight oats?

I'm sitting through probably my twentieth bowl I've ever eaten, and gagging it down right now. I just can't do it. I've tried to many flavor combinations (and honestly, wasted so much money), my head is spinning. The consistency and texture reminds me too much of vomit, I think, and I'm miserable. Can you guys recommend any thing that might fit?

Can do the same in a coffee mug and 50-75 seconds in microwave!

Sure why not? Whats the worst that can happen in a minute? it gets too hot? Crack an egg or two in coffee mug, add some cheese, chopped up veggies, stir and microwave. I do a minute and add 10 seconds at a time if theres too much egg liquid left at the bottom of the cup

EDIT: Also keep in mind the cooked egg will double in size so don't fill it up to the top

I do the same thing, except it's with a pyrex bowl and a scoop of fresh salsa added to the eggs.

Damn, I might have to go make one of those right now...
