Breakfast Ideas
Options
Hey Fam!
Just getting fired up on my journey and would love some lower carb/higher protien breakfast ideas that are relatively easy to make. I am still a child and eat cereal, so need to start eating some healthier options. What favorites have you come across that don't necessarily feel like "healthy foods?"

4 large scrambled eggs, roughly 25g protein, and I think <2g carbs. Pepper to taste. Super easy but you have a pan to wash afterwards. I guess it does feel like a healthy option.....so add a slice of cheese!8

Scrambled eggs with spicy suasage mixed into it . And maybe some hot sauce . Tiny bit not a lot .3
-
Protein smoothies, peanut butter toast, eggs any way you can make them, quiche that you can cook ahead and reheat each day, yogurt and berries, cottage cheese and anything6
-
Try scrambled eggs w (leftover) taco meat scrambled in. Top with avacado. YUM. High protein, satisfying and very easy!5

I agree eggs are my go to. You can change it up and try an egg burrito on a low carb tortilla, mix in bacon or sausage some salsa. You can make ahead egg omelets using a muffin tin. Spray the tin, add in your mix in's like cheese sausage, peppers, onions, mushrooms, what ever then top off each tin with some eggs that have been lightly beaten. I will make a weeks worth and then grab two pop them in the microwave and you have high protein breakfast!6

I would definitely choose rice cakes with peanut butter, its low in carbs and high in proteins 😎👌5 -
I do fage 0% greek yogurt with the jam cups--that way you can control the amount of sugar you add. Also a banana, usually with peanut butter0
-
Bacon and eggs!5
-
Chocolate protein mixed into full fat greek yogurt, topped with chia, flax, hemp, coconut flakes, avocado and blackberries.6
-
Bake whatever meats you fancy into an egg mixture (like a big deep no crust quiche or frittata, or can pour into large muffin cases). Add some veg like roasted peppers and onion, even some cannellini or kidney beans maybe some strained cottage cheese curds. Once baked in bulk/large pie dish, store in airtight container in fridge7
-
0% yoghurt + fresh fruit followed by a soft boiled egg.2
-
bake an egg, basil and a little bit of cheese (I've used goat and provolone) into a hollowed out tomato with a side of sprouted grain toast.1
-
Wheat toast, 2 eggs on top can be scrambled or cooked as you like, a couple tomatoes slices and some avocado.0

I just go with 2 hard boiled eggs. dip in a tiny bit of salt and pepper, and they are very delicious.
My other go to breakfast is sliced fruit and cheese. I get to pick out some fancy cheeses at the store so this one's fun. And pairing different fruit flavors means that I get a lot of variety.1 -
My go to lately has been Thomas Lite English Muffins (100 cal) topped with .25 Tablespoon of Natural Peanut Butter and just 10 ml of Cary's Sugar Free Syrup and a cup of Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt (80 cal and 12 g protein with only around 7g of sugar) with 5 grams of Kind Peanut Butter Granola for a little added crunch. For all of this... You get a total of 20g protein, 11g sugar, 40g carbs, 6g fat at only 250 calories. Filling and appetizing. Also just had Kodiak Protein Pancakes recommended to me and tried them Sunday with some fresh blueberries and the Cary's Sugar Free pancake syrup... Good stuff, high protein and filling too.1

You could eat cereal with protein milk (vanilla flavor probably, mixed with milk). That would be super easy and add a lot of protein.
Otherwise, you know, eggs. I'd probably cook up a few over easy eggs and some bacon and keep them in the fridge because I'm super lazy in the mornings. Maybe eat it on top of a piece of toast with some avocado and bacon. Yum.0 -
Always go for
2 eggs and 1 slice of toast for me ! Boring but fills me up4 -
My go to breakfast lately is 3 large scrambled eggs with onions, green peppers, and mushrooms along with a little pepper jack cheese. This is after drinking protein shake after workout with Greek yogurt and frozen blueberries.0

I like to cut the top off a bell pepper (keep it!), scoop out the seeds - add ham, cheese, mushroom, onion - whatever fancies you.... then crack 1-2 eggs depending on the size of the pepper -- put the "lid" of the pepper back on and microwave about 2 minutes give or take depending on how you like your eggs........ It's easy to do at work too - - I just chop up all my add-ins for the week and bring in peppers already cleaned and eggs....... and your co-workers will hate/love you cause it smells so good!!!! You could probably bake a bunch of these ahead of time, but haven't tried it - I like the crunch that remains on the pepper since it's only cooked 2 minutes...... or as another person stated make egg muffins - they are good cold or reheat easily........3

Today breakfast was Cocoa Puffs cereal, 60 g, Kefir, 4.0 oz, and peanut powder, 45 g. That was 461 calories and 28 grams protein. The kefir is thicker than milk and all that peanut powder made it thicker still. With the addition of a pot of coffee, my breakfast protein reached 30 grams.
It's not keto, of course. I don't try for high fat. My goal was to use kefir and reach 30 g protein.0
