Avocado toast may be taking the breakfast world by storm, but there’s no need to stop there. The great thing about toast is it’s fast, easy and can be customized with infinite topping possibilities.

When creating a satisfying, protein-rich breakfast toast, aim for a high-fiber bread (or a bread alternative) lean protein and healthy fat for a well-rounded toast that keeps you full all morning.

Research shows eating a high-protein breakfast not only keeps you full and satisfied longer than a breakfast low in protein, but it also prevents overeating later in the day and may decrease body fat. Incorporating about 20 grams of protein into breakfast provides a solid dose of protein while fiber and fat round out the meal for a balanced breakfast that keeps you satisfied until lunch.

These five toast options pack 20 grams of protein each, with a variety of sweet or savory toppings so you can get your toast fix.
