so very very many breakfast ideas and other recipes call for yogurt because its such a great diet ingredient apparently ..... well, I am lactose intolerant and its hard to find lactose free yogurt here. Also, for medical reasons I cannot have soy either.
I need recipe suggestions, please!

    I'm lactose intolerant too. My local grocery store just stopped carrying lactose free yogurt. I use avocado as a spread, in place of mayonnaise or butter. I do use lactaid milk.

    I am completely dairy free. I do eggs. When I feel like I need a change, I will do a spinach egg scramble or a bell pepper and onion scramble. I also do oatmeal, but rarely. It is possible to make almond milk pancakes, but I am not doing carbs so I don't make them anymore. Hope that helps!!

    i'm lactose intolerant, but i take lactaid, and it works well for me.

    almond milk can be used to make oats or grits, as can rice milk or other milk subs like that.

    SO Delicious makes a delicious unsweetened coconut milk yogurt. They have really good sweetened ones too, but I mostly save those to use as desserts.

    Also, eggs are wonderful breakfast foods. As are pancakes. And bacon. Bacon is dairy free.

    There's no rule that says you can only eat "breakfast foods" in the morning.
    Soup, leftovers, toast and avocado, fritters (eg corn and zucchini fritters with a cherry tomato salsa) all feature on the "breakfast" menu at my house from time to time.
    Or you could have a smoothie made with with fruit and nuts and oatmeal instead of a milk base. Or cereal with almond or other nut milk (personally I'm not a big fan of almond milk, I don't really like the taste and it's ridiculously overpriced).
    Chia pudding can be made with just about anything - I've just eaten an afternoon snack with only three ingredients: pistachios, chia seeds and water. Add some fruit and you'd get a nice rounded breakfast.
