Hi all. I love eggs and will be eating them often but does anybody have any other breakfast ideas other than eggs? I would love to see some other suggestions.

    Leftovers is what i often have for breakfast when hungry.

    Plain Greek yogurt fits into my carb amount of 50 or less. I just have to plan dinner around it sometimes.

    I'd love to eat keto pancakes or minute muffins and such but those things just make me want more. Ask me how I know? :/

    Chia pudding is a great option. Pretty inexpensive and super easy to make. And there are SO many different recipes out there. Plus, it's filling. Eggs only get me so far and then I NEED something different so I don't get burnt out.

    I also like chia pudding. I also tried a cottage cheese recipe with flax. It was a warm "oatmeal" dish.

    Funny I just asked this on another forum. I have been doing bacon and avocado lettuce wraps, but just found a recipe for keto granola cereal that's freaking delicious. It's higher in calories as it's all nuts and seeds, but I find it totally worth it, lol. I also tried a lemon poppyseed muffin that's low carb. Also yummy.

    Google keto recipes. I found several sites with breakfast recipes and so far, I have yet to be disappointed with anything I've made.

    So squeeeyk...give us the granola recipe.
    Breakfast eggs by themselves leave me tired and hungry too quickly.
    Greek yogurt makes me gain weight.
    If I am in a hurry, trader joes oysters are good but 8 carbs.
    krislshoekrislshoe...just check out who comes to the keto page and see what they have for breakfast.
    btw...make sure that person is losing weight.

    I LOVE this recipe. It's so freaking yummy. I've looked for other cereal recipes but everyone seems to think coconut is required and I don't like coconut...So it was hard to find one without it.

    Bulletproof Keto Coffee is good too and keeps me full until lunch.

    I will often have a "cheese sandwich" for breakfast to go along with my coffee-
    Two Cauliflower Buns with a slice or two of havarti in the middle. Pop in the microwave for 45 seconds (or into a toaster oven for a bit, if you like it 'toastier').

    I agree with missravae, salami & cheese makes a great breakfast. I also add low carbs nuts, like pecans or macadamias.

    I also sometimes do just a Premiere Protein shake for a quick and easy breakfast. I decided to try the bananas & cream one today and it was pretty darn good.

    I do Bulletproof Coffee unless I am fasting. I have never been much of a breakfast person.

    Tuna salad, salmon cakes, avocado salad (the bulk is diced avocado instead of lettuce) can add cheese, meat, other stuff u put on a salad. Steak, blt wraps. If u mean something sweet like an average breakfast, make ahead: gluten free sugar free pb cookies, keto mug cakes dry mix or batter in mugs ready to go, quest bars. Keto sweets usually trigger more cravings tho =\

    Some good options here. I am rarely hungry at breakfast time, so mostly I practice intermittent fasting and have my first meal at around 1-2pm. Then it's usually leftovers from the night before.

    My favourite breakfast is bacon, poached eggs and grilled haloumi. Yum! Actually that's just my favourite meal any time of the day...

    I have “breakfast” i.e. my first meal anywhere from noon to about 2:00 pm. I try to save my carbs for dinner so I often just have eggs. Right now I have 3 or 4 eggs scrambled w butter and cream. Usually keeps me going til dinner between 6 or 8. If not I have a bullet proof coffee or a couple of tablespoons of almond butter to keep me going. I don’t really like eggs but really don’t know what else to have that is filling and carbless. I miss plain greek yogurt and steel cut oats (both w berries) which were my go to breakfasts before. Just can’t afford the carbs at this point as I try to keep them under 20g. Once I settle at a healthier weight I plan to up my carbs (from Keto to just low carb) and hopefully will enjoy them again. Til then I guess Im stuck with eggs and occasionally dinner leftovers ... unless someone has an amazing zero carb idea ???? :smile:

    @Shron123 - Not to burst your bubble, but eggs (large) have about 0.42 carbs per egg. so 4 of them would be rounded up to 2 carbs... But those carbs generally don't add up or matter than much compared to other types of carbs... Just saying. :)

    I made the keto pretzel recipe I found on Pinterest. It's 5grams of carbs per serving but well worth it! So delicious, like a cheese biscuit. I just had a breakfast sandwich with one filled with cheese, ham and egg.

    I haven't made many, but here is what I have....

    Coffee Chia Pudding: https://nutritionistmeetschef.com/coffee-chia-pudding/ I used a few drops of English Toffee Stevia instead of syrup and substituted heavy cream for the milk. Next time, I would use less cream, more coffee.

    Really basic: https://lowcarbyum.com/simple-chia-seed-vanilla-pudding/

    I often make very small servings (I call them belly shots) using plain kefir (75 ml), chia seeds (2 tbsp), a few drops of stevia and maybe a few raspberries or blueberries. I have one every day when I'm experiencing gut issues.
