Granola Cups is another great Sunday preparation plan. Piece together 5 cups and take one out each day to enjoy for breakfast. The key here is to get a quality granola. While granola CAN be a quality food choice, many of the granola's you'll find in grocery stores are FAR from healthy - with excess sugar, excess calories, lack of protein/fiber, etc.
Make sure to look for a granola that has at least 8g of protein, 3+ grams of fiber, and less than 10g of sugar per serving.
