    Bean Burrito?
    grilled cheese sandwich?
    Fruit and/or veggie smoothie with protein powder

    ooohhh ... those are all high carb. Sorry. Guess you need to eat a turkey rollups or sausages or some such.

    100g of almond milk, 35g of oats, 50g of frozen fruit and 15g of protein powder. Mix it all up and bung it in the microwave for 2 minutes for some seriously tasty porridge (oatmeal)

    I often eat something similar but I find the protein powder kind of "curdles" so I stopped using it. Does this happen to you?

    I combine the milk and the oats then add in the protein powder and stir it pretty vigorously. If I don't do it that way it curdles for me too :) it also helps to cook for 1 minute then stir and then cook for another minute

    Greek yogurt mixed with sugar free pudding mix and fruit. My current fave is the lemon flavor with strawberries and blueberries.

    That sounds delicious! Thank you!

    It depends on how low you want to go. If you want a very low carb breakfast and don't want eggs, your other choices are meats, hard cheeses, and nuts (or nut butters). Even Greek yogurt has a few carbs.

    Note that I don't favor going that low, and I have tried it!

    These coconut and seed cookies are great when you feel like milk and cookies for breakfast.
    Makes 18 .
    200 g, Unsweetened Desiccated Coconut
    125 g, Ground Almonds
    35 g, Seeds, sesame seeds
    2 tbsp, Spices, poppy seed
    2 Tbsp, Chia Seed
    0.25 Pumpkin Seeds
    6 tbsp(s), Butter - Unsalted
    6 tbsp(s), Honey
    0.50 tsp, baking soda
    1 tsp(s), Vanilla Extract
    Melt butter and honey together and add to other ingredients. Mix together then form into 18 balls. Place on baking tray and flatten slightly. They are a bit bit crumbly and sticky at this stage so you may have to squish them together a bit. Wetting your hands helps to stop the mixture sticking too much. Bake at 160 degrees celsius for about 10 minutes..they're ready when the edges are nice and brown, but be careful as the honey means they'll burn quickly.

    Per cookie they have 234 cal, 20gm fat, 5gm protein, 7gm sugar, and 9gm carbs.

    I found that whey protein powder curdles when it's heated. I like to put a bit in my coffee, so I dissolve it first in a bit of luke warm tap water and then stir it in my coffee. That seems to work.
