I am eating primal and feeling mostly good. However, I get bored with just eating salad in the morning. I know I need carbs to start my day...what is your favorite veggie carb to eat in the morning?

Why do you "...know I need carbs to start my day"???
Typical breakfast for us is:
2 egg (with yolks) omelet
2 slices of cheese
1 cup of raw spinach
3 strips of bacon
spices
coffee
450 cals/ 1 net carb / 75% fat / 24% protein
Filling, healthy, and delish!0 -
Hmm...I'm not really sure why I say "I know I need a carb to start my day". I have just been having a veggie with my breakfast (ie: wilted kale, wilted spinach, green salad).0

My typical breakfast includes eggs, bacon, heavy cream, cheese, and butter. Sometimes I add mushrooms or spinach if I want a veg.0

This goes for me too. I seldom add veggies to my breakfast, but I do have some for lunch or dinner.
I typically go fat-heavy instead in the morning for my source of energy.0 -
I too like more fat and protein in the morning--too many carbs makes me hungrier the rest of the day and I end up overdoing it. Had eggs, bacon and cream cheese in an omelet this morning, with a few cherry tomatoes.0

I agree with you all and stock up on fat in the morning. Bulletproof coffee helps me with this.0

I agree with adding mushrooms or spinach to an omelet in the morning...although usually I just eat the eggs bc it's easy.
Other great morning vegetables...
Sliced avocado
Broiled or grilled asparagus0 -
Thanks everyone! Maybe I should change the way I think of breakfast!!0

OMG avocado with eggs or bacon, or both!!! Yumz!
I've been doing cubed turkey with some crumbled bacon when I can remember to fix the bacon, I have a buttload of eggs I need to be eating.
I'd love to do an egg over easy on a piece of toast with some sugar free preserves, but don't wanna waste my carbs on that.
But seriously tho the avocado....you need to.0 -
Instead of toast, have an egg overeasy on a steak. If you're not motivated enough for that in the morning, eggs are still awesome for dinner.0
