high protien breakfast

MsMonny0802 · February 29

I need a high protein, mod carb breakfast that is not cereal based! I currently have two boiled eggs and toast but I will soon get sick of this. Most of my carbs are divided into breakfast and snacks, so I do not want to put most of my carbs into this one meal. I am not keen on meat for breakfast either.
Any ideas? Or am I pretty much stuck with eggs every day, but in different ways???

I eat cottage cheese or Greek yogurt a lot for breakfast. Generally with a fruit and carb.

springlering62 · March 1

I’ve been having a couple servings cottage cheese with a serving of honey and a few grams of a plain whole grain muesli (not nuts sugar or fruit).

Delicious! And lots of protein.

I like yogurt with rolled oats, but 30 grams of oats has 20 grams of carbs. You could skip the oats and just eat the yogurt, maybe with some nutritional yeast.

I've been doing the yogurt bowl lately as a change from oatmeal. Plain Greek yogurt is pretty high in protein. I like mine with mixed berries (frozen, slightly thawed), and a lot of other mix-ins (but my calorie allowance is higher now that I'm in maintenance).

A few add-ins to consider IMO would be peanut butter powder or almond butter powder (tasty, a few grams of extra protein); seeds (chia, hemp, ground flax) for varied amounts of protein/fiber/Omega-3 fats; a few walnuts (Omega-3s). Some people like flavored protein powder in yogurt bowls, but that's not my jam.

I love any and all tex-mex.
I heat leftover chili or beans in a skillet, crack an egg or two in it and poach.
Meal prep eggs with salsa in taco shells in cupcake pans.
Meal prep egg, chicken, and salsa or pico burritos.
I'm a lazy cook, and I can Meal prep for 5 or 6 days in just a few more minutes than it takes to make one breakfast.

I like overnight oats and put a little protein powder, sugar free pudding mix, and plain Greek yogurt in before putting them in the fridge.

Overnight Oats might be too carby for you, but you could also have them once in a while to change up the monotony of your eggs. It keeps me very full until at least lunch. Just put it all in a container the night before in the fridge and it is ready, fast and easy, by morning. I keep things pretty simple:

0.5 Cup Rolled Oats (Bob's Red Mill)
0.5 Cup Hot Water
0.75 Cup High Protein Plain Greek Yogurt (Liberte)
0.5 Cup Frozen Blueberries (Great Value)

Avocado toast with an egg is my go to

cats2222 · March 12

I do a smoothie with protien shake, frozen fruit, and a piece of toast

You could make Dutch babies. It's still egg-based but I don't think you would get sick of it. It's almost like a pancake but it has a lot of protein in it. You can make high protein pancakes which there are plenty of recipes on YouTube and Google. So your car will be inside with your protein. You can make a egg bake or casserole bake. You could make chicken sausage balls or biscuits. You could also do a couple eggs with ancestral ground chicken sausage.

This Protein Chia Pudding is awesome in the morning: https://realfoodwholelife.com/wprm_print/28809

I typically have 2 eggs, scrambled, and half of a whole grain english muffin covered with (original not flavored) hummus.

It's fairly even, 260cal, 14carb, 17fat, and 16protien

neanderthin · March 26

This morning I had a 4oz hanger steak and 3 eggs and about 2 cups of salad greens for about 50g's of protein.

TracyL963 · March 26

Oatmeal Mug Muffin

1 packet instant oatmeal (I use low sugar)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1/4 cup applesauce, mashed banana, or pumpkin puree

Mix in a microwavable mug and cook on high about 2 minutes. Allow to cool.

erynkcameron · March 26

I get a collagen peptides supplement. 19g protein in one scoop. I can add it to yogurt, smoothies, even just plain water to get my protein in when I need it.

jmcmahan61 · March 28

I like a variety, since I get bored easily. My choices are of course eggs and bacon or sausage (don't really care for the turkey stuff), a piece of toast, Ratio yogurt, fresh berries like strawberries and blackberries and low fat cottage cheese; the Ratio yogurt is also a good snack if you need to fix a sweet tooth; the vanilla flavor is very good and it has 26 grams of protein. I just basically pick something, for instance I made broccoli florets for supper this evening now I plan to have that in the morning with some scrambled eggs, strawberries and some lowfat cottage cheese.

ericanahnahnah · March 29

I do a scoop of protein powder and a scoop of collagen peptides when I am in a hurry in the morning. Cottage cheese with pepitas and beets or tomatoes.
When I have time... low carb tortilla with some eggs and veg.

Ronnie_happy2ranch · March 29

I have been making a mixture of egg whites, shredded zucchini, chopped tomato, spinach and feta crumbles with a sprinkle of black pepper. I mix it all together and then cook it and add a portion to an Egglife egg white wrap. The filling can be refrigerated a couple of days or frozen (but then it needs to be drained of any resulting liquid). I've been trying to be sure I get a mix of veggies and fruits each day along with extra protein and less carbs, so this works well for me for a low calorie, healthy blend. I also add a scoop of my protein/collagen peptide mix into a cup of tea each morning.

50g banana, blueberries, 50g açai ( I use frozen and thaw out, use what ever fruit u like. )
Mix 150g greek yoghurt & WPC protein powder - 1 scoop, can use any flavour, I like vanilla protein.
Top with 20g almonds or cacao crunch toppers or any cluster topping - AMAZING!

chadders8364 · April 8

I buy regular (not thick) sliced bacon and cut the slices in half. Lay six half slices out on a paper towel, place another towel on top, and gently put in a microwaveable cereal bowl.

Three minutes later I have perfect crispy very well drained bacon. 180 calories or less depending on brand.

I’ll take protein via bacon ANY day.

jaymechapman7871 · April 26

Try a 90 sec microwave keto bread. So good. It's high in protein and fat low in carbs. Just google recipes
