  • you can also do 6 egg whites
    3 oz chicken breast diced
    1 1-2 ounces fat free parmesan cheese
    basil

    cook the chicken and dice it up and scramble with the rest,

    320 cal
    6 g fat
    49 g protein
    16 carbs

    is there a way of getting the best protein for a commuter? Right now i use an overnight-thawed tortilla wrap to grab when running out the door.

    wholegrain bagel toasted with peanut butter and nutella is one of the reasons i love strength training days :D (same protein content as i get with my 2 eggs on normal mornings)

    also love smoked salmon with the scrambled eggs.

    How is a bagel considered low carb?

    There are places that make what they claim are low carb bagels.Like 27 grams per bagel, I believe.

    27 g per bagel is not low carb! What's the fiber? You subract fiber from the carb. I eat 25-35 grams in an entire day!

    I'm right there with you - a lot of these suggestions would have me nearly double over my carb intake for the day :-/

    I often have one or a combination of the following for a high-protein dairyfree breakfast:

    -Edamame
    -So Delicious Greek Style Yogurt made with coconut milk
    -Unsweetened Organic Soymilk
    -Organic oatmeal with flaxseed
    -Almonds
    -Organic pb on ezekiel bread
    -Tofu scramble
  • Does anyone know of a QUICK, LIKE RUNNING OUT THE DOOR high protein food for breakfast? Greek fatfree yogurt seems the best with berries to eat as you ride/drive.

    Atkins breakfast bar & Atkins shake. Bought at your local grocer or Walmart. Some fruit are NOT low carb.

    Very interesting suggestions !!! Bump
  • What about protein pancakes?
    There's tons of recipes on here: http://blogilates.com/category/recipe-index/healthy-breakfasts

    She has a recipe for high protein yogurt oatcakes too but then I realised you wanted non-dairy.
    The protein oatcakes are great for anyone who doesn't have protein powder though (:

    I heat tinned chopped tomatoes, lentils or black beans, spinach and fresh chili in a pan - crack in a couple of eggs then cover and cook until eggs are done to your liking. Eggs and chili - yum.
