I prefer the ease of my loaded tea (not a coffee drinker) for an "on the go" breakfast that keeps me full.

But otherwise, I do pepperoni and cheese, any dinner leftovers I wanted to eat, etc. If you can eat it, it's not restricted to a time of day!

My LOADED Tea
NEWEST NOTES - I've started using a refillable K-Cup in the Keurig at work because the heat of the tea is perfect for the eggs (to kill the bacteria and such). So in the cup I use 2 tea bags of decaf, and 3 tea bags of lipton. I brew it through twice, 10 oz each. Altogether this makes 26-30 oz of tea, depending on whether I have to add more hot water to the last cup to warm it . Please please please holler if you have questions. I've heard of folks using chai tea and all kinds of stuff, too!

My loaded tea is a combination of the primal egg coffee recipe and bullet proof coffee, but with hot tea. I loathe coffee with a passion.

For those not used to coconut oil, please start slowly (no more than 1/2 TBSP-1 TBSP at first....) because it can lead to bathroom sprints and loose bowels. Acclimate slowly and you'll be able to up it. The heavy cream and coconut oil are to my personal tastes - you can increase or decrease. Also, a lot of folks making the traditional BPC use grassfed butter. I didn't like it at the time, but might try adding it to my egg version at some point...)

INGREDIENTS:
3 tea bags (I just use Lipton out of convenience...I like it STRONG)
12-16 oz super hot water to steep (See Keurig Note Above)
dash pink himalayan salt (5-6 seconds on my battery grinder)
2 raw whole eggs (sometimes I use 3 if using large instead of XL)
2-4 TBSP of heavy whipping cream
1-4 TBSP coconut oil
3 sweetener packets (prefer stevia or a mix of stevia and splenda)

DIRECTIONS:
Pour boiling/steaming water over tea bags to steep.
Shake everything except the tea in a shaker bottle while the tea steeps.
Once everything is well mixed/blended and tea is steeped, pour in 1/3 to 1/2 of the tea. Shake until you hear the coconut oil stop thumping (it's solid here until melted) and the temperature cools naturally from the combining hot and cold.
Do this again until all the tea is mixed in.
Then shake some more. Usually about 2-3 minutes of shaking because I don't have a stick or regular blender at work.

(When I do this now with the Keurig hot tea, the first 10 oz goes into the bottle with the shaken eggs, cream, and salt. Shaken till mixed, then add sweetener and CO, shake again. Split evenly between two bottles, top off each with the remainnig 10 oz of tea, half per bottle. Shake. Then I prefer to strain it as I pour it into my mug, as just shaking rather than blending leaves the toughest part of the whites intact - YUCK!)

NOTES: This yields a rich, creamy, custardy, decadent tea with lots of fuel for my body. It is SO filling, sometimes I can't finish it all. It leaves me full well up until lunch, and many times, even following with a light-calorie wise lunch, I'm not hungry until 7 or 8 pm... It is so AWESOME for me.... Simplifies breakfast, and the caffeine and coconut oil give me energy for hours!
I have tried it with other flavors and such (vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa powder, chai tea - I don't like the tea bags I got), but the basic recipe is so great...

ADDED NOTE: This can also be done without the eggs. Salt is optional at that point. I find the eggs added makes me stay full longer, but a 150 - 200 calories snack with the tea would accomplish the same task, as 2 eggs are 140 calories, give or take.

Oh, and I'd forgotten - here is one I did on a diary snapshot of the last month or so for me:

Feel free to message with any questions.

Haha Knit, I'm thinking the same thing, leftover burger with eggs!!

6 chocolate peanut butter fat bombs with some heavy whipping cream (I usually have this at least once a week for breakfast).

6 Maple Pecan Tahini candies (another fat bomb) with heavy whipping cream (likewise, have this at least once a week for breakfast). I do a lot of cooking on the week-ends and often have tons of options portioned out in the freezer.

1 piece of toasted LC Foods bread with 1 tablespoon of butter, 2 tablespoons of Challenge brand whipped cream cheese, 2 tablespoons LC Foods preserves and heavy whipping cream.

1/4 quest protein bar, 1 ounce sliced salami and 6 tablespoons heavy whipping cream.

1 ounce flavored nut mix (like rosemary garlic pistachios & almonds or maple mesquite pod walnuts or sesame teriyaki almonds & cashews, etc.), 1 ounce sea salt vinegar kale chips with heavy whipping cream.

to name just a few...

I tend to just have coffee with coconut cream, or heavy whipping cream, along with some protein powder, and I'm often good until 2:00 pm.

I do like breakfast sausage or scrambled eggs (often with salsa or spinach), so that tends to be my big breakfast.

You make me wish I could have dairy...

Yes. I eat eggs and butter. I just can't tolerate milk, cream, sour cream, ice cream, yogurt or cheese... All of the good stuff

I can't eat first thing in the morning so I take breakfast to work for a 9:30 or 10am snack/meal. I pre-cook bacon once a week and will pair it with keto pancakes (2oz. cream cheese, 2 eggs, 1tsp cinnamon, and sweetener of choice- I use 12 drops vanilla stevia, sweetleaf brand makes 4 pancakes) or a frittata or quiche dish or deviled eggs. Eggs just don't seem so boring when dressed up!
