Mix protein powder and milk together in a bowl until there are no clumps. Add cereal.
2
Just find a cereal you like where a serving is in the 100-150 calorie range. Realistically, you could pick any breakfast cereal and just scale the serving size to be in that range since pretty much all breakfast cereals are going to have a very similar macronutrient breakdown. In other words, your choice of breakfast cereal is not going to make or break your diet, since they're mostly all just a quick, high-carbohydrate morning meal.

2
Place the eggs in a small sauce pan and cover with water.
3
Bring water to boil and continue boiling until eggs reach desired doneness. Typically, 6-7 mins from point of boiling for soft boiled eggs and 8-10 mins for hard boiled eggs.
4
Peel the eggs, season to taste (salt, pepper, sriracha are all good) and eat.
