High protein breakfast that's quick?

It is more moderate-carb than low-carb, but my favorite breakfast is cottage cheese or Greek yogurt + fruit. I pick fresh fruit in the summer and freeze it myself so that I always have good stuff on hand.
I also like Spanish tortilla (fritatta) without potatoes for breakfast. Usually that is sausage, red pepper, garlic, green onion, mushroom and 2-3 eggs.0 -
As many eggs as you can hold in your hand (whilst they are still in their jackets) scrambled with a big lump of coconut oil. Season to your liking. Nuke for 45 seconds, stir, Nuke until cooked. Deeeeelicious, quick and the fat keeps you going for hours. Well, it does me.0

2-3 egg omelette with ham and/or turkey and cheese.
Just crack some eggs in a bowl or glass, whisk them a bit with a fork, add cream, salt or onion powder if you feel like it. Put in a hot pan with plenty of butter, add cheese and meat.
Takes like 10 minutes. Longer or shorter depending on the size of the frying pan, the amount of eggs and how cooked you like it. Thinner layer of egg meant shorter cooking time.0 -
Oatmeal with protein powder mixed in instead of sugar. Sounds gross, but I like it.0

A few yogurt cups (greek), protein shake, protein bar or a few hard-boiled eggs cooked night before and refrigerated for AM.0

Orange juice has an enormous number of carbs...it's basically like drinking sugar.0 -
Eggs - egg whites if you need more protein without all the calories - toss in some roast chicken w/ veg and you have an omelet. I tend to alternate my breakfast between oatmeal with flax and chia one morning, then two eggs with a slice of toast and fruit the next.0

This would be easier if I liked Greek yogurt.0

This is a fantastic protein shake packed with vital nutrients that only takes 3 min to make. This is one that you will make daily if not weekly.
Spinach, banana, peanut butter, protein shake
2 handfuls fresh baby spinach
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/2 banana
1 TBSP Natural peanut butter
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Ice to preference
Blend together.
Gets a few other ideas:
Cottage cheese w/ fresh fruit
1/2 cup cottage cheese
3/4 cup mixed fresh fruit
I like 1/4 cup of each of the following: pineapple, blueberries, strawberries
Serve with whole wheat toast
String cheese w/ 2-3 slices of (packaged sandwich) honey ham wrapped around the cheese.
Oatmeal w/fresh blueberries & sliced almonds or walnuts
Serve with whole wheat toast
Omletes are always a favorite as well
Hope these help out.
GOOD LUCK on your new journey!0 -
My go to favorite is Isopure strawberry + cream protien powder 50 mg put in a blender and add my fresh brewed dark roast coffee. Omg makes an awesome cappuccino like drink. I look forward to it every morning! First read about how beneficial adding hi protien to your morning is in aiding a women's metabolism. No carbs no sugar no gluten no aspartame. The froth you get from blending it is amazing.0
