So, I am allergic to eggs and am very tired of eating oatmeal or cereal for breakfast. I love fruit, but it just isn’t filling enough in its own or with greek yogurt. Anyone have some good recipes or ideas? Thanks!

    Yes, but she just said she was tired of it, not that she didn't like it. ::shrug:: it's just more protein, more filling, and that link has lots of variations that are yummy.

    OP, eat tuna sandwiches.

    Better?

    Bacon, ham, muffins, pancakes, toast with jam, marmalade, waffles, bagels, etc.

    I wish it were that simple, I haven’t found any breads, muffins, waffles, or bagels at the store that don’t contain eggs in the ingredients. (It probably helps to note I live in the middle of nowhere and only have a Walmart within an hour of my home) I would make them at home but I haven’t had any luck making eggfree versions that aren’t rubbery/gross. Thanks though.

    Thanks! I will try a few of these, better than regular oatmeal!

    Yogurt, just a bigger portion. Like sometimes I'll eat 8 oz of it.

    Try crumbling a granola bar on top of the fruit and Greek yogurt.

    My go to quick breakfast, no eggs, is either wheat bread or a bagel with sliced tomatoe, fresh basil, and provolone cheese melted on top in the toaster oven.

    Otherwise, pancakes, waffles, cream of wheat, just bagels with cream cheese or loxs too. I made noodle kugel recently and have had that for breakfast for a lot of days this past week, but it uses eggs for baking. I do actually like spicy asian noodles for breakfast sometimes. And also just yogurt and fruit, french style.

    Actually eggs are not my norm for breakfast.

    Is there an ethnic cuisine you're fond of?

    I always think that Americans have a limited idea of what certain ethnic cuisines are because so few of them are open for breakfast. But the options are endless.

    Some ideas:

    The all popular avocado toast. I like to sprinkle lime and cayenne because i like spicy in the morning

    The fruit you like could be more filling with more fiber. For example, today I made a smoothie with one kiwi, one avocado, pear, keffir, and a bit of honey, cayenne, and a touch of salt.

    Turkish breakfast: a good hard bread, white salty cheese, a salad of cucumber and tomato, and plent of olives alongside strong coffee

    Lots of different types of congee is you're into Chinese food

    There's a traditional Indian breakfast dish called Idli that I am fond of. You can use brown rice flour for more fiber.

    I'm a big fan of smoked salmon on any sort of bagel or bread

    Rarebit ie cheese on toast

    My favorite is super simple...avocado toast. I just smash an avocado on one toast, add a bit of lemon and salt, and done... I'm trying to avoid eating too much bread, so I will restrict it to one toast. You can add anything on top (tomatoes, spinach, cucumber, turkey)

    I love anything spicy, especially things with vegetables or thai food. I honestly cook with so much siracha, peppers, onions and garlic that I have practically desensitized myself to the “actual” heat level. I am also very fond of many greek/mediterranian dishes, though I have actually never given thought to having breakfast dishes from those regions. Thank you!

    @teahlee123 Sorry I thought you were just avoiding egg recipes. Didn't realize egg as an ingredient in breads, muffins, waffles, or bagels was a problem as well.

    On one of my overseas trips to another country, I was actually amazed to be offered lamb chops for breakfast. Any other meat could work as well. I've also heard it said that there's no specific food called "breakfast food", so you can easily use some of the same things you use for lunch or dinner. Leftovers from one day's evening meal can be breakfast for the next day.

    .... Bread doesn't generally have egg, homemade would be super easy to make!

    Look up vegan breakfasts. There are a lot of egg substitutes used there, I have a dairy allergy and understand how hard it is. Also if you get french bread recipes, there are no eggs or dairy in most of them.

    Yeah, I bake bread a lot and none of my go-to recipes contain egg. Let me know if you would like any recipes!
