Hi, I am on a gluten/dairy free diet due to allergies. I have no idea what to eat for breakfast. I don't like breakfast in general, and I'm allergic to eggs. Do you have any suggestions?

Look for Cream of Rice or buckwheat groats. You can make porridge with that. Add berries, seeds, or whatever you like. Bob's Red Mill makes a bunch of gluten-free instant porridge type products.
Tofu scramble.
Fruit smoothies.
Van's waffles, pancakes.
You can eat pretty much anything you'd normally have for breakfast. There's an alternative for it at most stores now. Look for gluten-free and vegan labels on the packaging.

Udi's bread, muffins, cinnamon rolls (lol).

Thank you.
I try to eat the least processed thing, but I love toast sometimes and oatmeal. I get nauseated in the morning so I like carbs. Lol

I had to take out the Udi's suggestion. Most of their products contain eggs.0

Oh darn! I'm usually ok if it's in a baked product, but eggs (scrambled, over easy, hard boiled), will make me sicker than anything. I'm not sure why. I might give them a try anyways.0

Eat the same thing you eat for dinner (save something from the night before).
OR
If you do not like breakfast, skip it. Let lunch be your first meal of the day.0 -

I can't eat lunch, so I eat breakfast. If I do get to eat lunch (2-3 x a week), it's always dinner left overs. Lol I'll figure something out with that.

what about soy or non-dairy yogurts?0
-
I really hate yogurt. The texture is disgusting. I put it in my smoothies only. This was before I found out about my dairy allergy, of course.
I try to eat a pretty heavy breakfast since I can't normally eat lunch. Yogurt doesn't do it for me. I avoid soy, so I'll try another alternative.
Maybe I'll like it! Does non dairy yogurt have probiotics? My body doesn't produce the right amount of good bacteria, so I need them.0 -
I also hate yogurt but i love greek yogurt if you havent tried it ! The texture is entirely different - much thicker and creamier - I hate the texture of yogurt too. Add in some gluten free cereal or oats or granola or biscuits, some fruits, cocoa powder if you like chocolate pudding type foods, some nut butter and seeds and mix it all up ! Or try quark - fat free and tastes like light soft cheese but can use it as savoury or sweet and is packed full of protein to kick start the morning. Gluten free oats etc are certainly an option - you could also grind them to make oat flour or use coconut flour or almond flour or rice flour etc to make muffins, pancakes , waffles etc ! Or make oat bars with oats, honey, butter or nut butter, dried fruit and nuts or popcorn or dark chocolate chips etc. Make some potato hash browns and have with a meat such as bacon and some avocado and beans or lentils etc.
Make a healthh cookie dough using blended chickpeas , nut butter, honey and chocolate chips ( or can bake it to make chickpea blondies or brownies ). Make flourless cakes such as banana oat brownies . Make shakes using fruit, nut butter or oil, milk of choice, some greens and ice ! Gluten free weetabix are great too and not overly processed. Can also make quinoa and use as you would oats so top with either sweet or savoury things. Hope this may have helped a little !!0 -

Greek yogurt gets me too but I can handle it a little better! Thank you so much for all of these suggestions!

Udi's bread is the best if you like toast. I tried other brands including brown rice bread and they all were locking taste and crunch, but udi's so far my favorite0 -

Have you tried Schar? We actually like their bread better for toast and sandwiches, but like Udi's as well. Schar also has an amazing line of rolls, baguettes, etc.0 -
My fave gf breakfasts are chia seed puddings (like dessert for breakfast), a slice of gf toast with 1/4 avocado, onion and smoked salmon, peanut butter banana smoothies and overnight oats - so many options.0
-
Cottage cheese, Kind GF granola, and fruit.
Toast with almond or peanut butter
Various GF Chex cereal with milk or yogurt (if your only problem with yogurt is texture, this makes it feel much different)
Cheesy grits
Oatmeal
I am allergic to egg yolks, so I can also have egg white omelets. Have you tried just the whites? It may be worth a try if you haven't.
Edit to add: enjoy life bars are a good snack that is free of the 8 most common allergens. They aren't a whole meal, but they keep from getting too hungry in a pinch.0 -
An apple with peanut butter and flax meal hot cereal, flavored with any sweetener plus some dried fruit, nuts, etc0
-
+1 to the gluten free bread with avocado... or just avocado by itself or with a couple chia seeds0
-
Bacon and mushrooms.... Mmmmmm0
