Hey everyone! My ENT told me to stay away from eggs and dairy for 4 weeks. My normal breakfast was always 2 eggs or an omelet or scramble. I don’t like eating oatmeal every day bc of the carb and sugar content. Does anyone have any other ideas for decently quick breakfasts?

    Sandwiches? Dinner leftovers?

    Peanut butter to the rescue! BP and banana sandwich! Goes great with coffee.

    I agree with leftovers. I think they make great breakfasts.

    I just discovered blueberry Cheerios. With Silk unsweetened vanilla almond milk, comes in under 200 calories.
    As others suggested, I like PB2 on a toasted Light English muffin with sliced banana. Depending on the size of the banana, around 200 calories.

    I have to limit my Peanut and wheat intake as well, just not as much as egg and dairy. Could you do almond butter?

    Avocado toast with a side of berries. Yum.
    . This sounds really good! I usually have berries every morning anyways, so I’ll have to rotate this in 😊

    You can do whatever you like. I love almond butter.

    I think opening your options up to more than just typical breakfast foods will be helpful.

    Sadly, pizza isn’t dairy free.

    Try an international breakfast like Norwegian or Japanese. The Japanese breakfast may be based off Miso soup. The Norwegian could be smoked or pickled herring and toast.

    I was going to suggest avocado on toast too. Also smoked salmon on toast with a squeeze of lemon and pepper. Other smoked fish such as smoked mackerel and trout.

    There is no reason breakfast food needs to be anything resembling traditional "breakfast". That's a cultural/marketing thing, not a health thing. Eat the foods you normally like to eat in the afternoon and evening, just in the morning.

    Asian breakfast. Noodle soups such as laksa and pho.

    I like apple or banana with almond or sunflower butter(or whole almonds or walnuts), or mixed vegetables with nutritional yeast or meat(usually dinner leftovers).

    Stewed apple with oats and a myriad of spices to taste. Some nuts and berries on top as an option. It's basically apple crumble reformatted.

    You can Google AIP breakfasts as all will be dairy, egg, gluten, nut free.

    You can make a hash ahead of time with sweet potato or white potato, onion, other veg and sausage/ ham/ bacon etc. Just reheat in the morning. It can be versatile depending on what or if you top it with. Salsa, oregano and lemon, gochujang etc etc.

    My go to is overnight oats, I make five servings at at a time so I have five days worth of breakfast. I use oats, dairy free yogurt (typically almond milk based), unsweetened almond milk, protein powder (dairy free), and then I add fruit and seasoning - whatever you like. It is filling, nutritious, and really quick to make. My favorite recipe comes in at 275 calories.

    Me too! I should try the protein powder - I currently use chia seed as the thickener, unsweetened almond milk, a splash of vanilla, cinnamon, and whatever fruit I have on hand. I usually add PB Powder but doesn't sound like that will work for the OP right now.

    I blend up: 1 banana, ~200ml almond milk, ~200ml coconut milk(I dont measure anymore), 1 scoop vegan protein (I use MyProtein Vegan Chocolate)

    I then smash a handful of almonds to get my fats up.

    Takes in its entirety to about 4 mins to prep/drink/eat and be on my way

    Fits my macros and satiates me until lunch.

    Tofu scramble! You can add a lot of veggies, too.
