Low Carb High Protein Breakfast Ideas
These low carb high protein breakfast ideas are all naturally low in grams of carbs and high in grams of protein, to help you on your way to achieving your own personal health and weight loss goals, while being satisfying and keeping you full until lunch time.
Each healthy breakfast is quick and easy to prepare, which is especially important for busy mornings, and they are all made with simple ingredients that are easy to find at a grocery store.
1. Green Shakshuka
A nutritious green shakshuka makes a brilliant low-carb diet approved breakfast that you can adapt to suit your tastes, dietary requirements and budget.
My go to ingredients include zucchini, garlic and spinach, which is all sauteed until softened in a little olive oil, coconut oil or butter in a frying pan, before adding a couple of eggs and crumbling feta cheese over the top for an inviting breakfast that will keep you full for hours.
You can feel free to swap the green vegetables for red bell peppers and tomatoes to create a more traditional shakshuka dish, or swap for your keto diet friendly vegetables of choice.
2. Superfood Breakfast Bowl
A great way to start your day with a meal that will help you achieve your daily healthy fats and protein intake goals is to make a superfood breakfast bowl that includes smoked salmon, scrambled eggs and sliced avocado.
3. Three Cheese Omelette
An omelette that’s filled with 3 cheeses is the perfect way to start your day on the right foot when you’re following a low carb high protein diet.
I chose to include grated Mozzarella Cheese, Parmesan Cheese and Smoked Cheese in my super cheesy omelette, you can pick just one, go with all 3 or swap to you cheese (or cheeses) of choice.
4. Low Carb High Protein Tuna Breakfast Scramble
A hearty breakfast scramble is a brilliant, quick meal option that you can adapt to include whatever ingredients are lurking in your fridge.
In this instance I went for spinach, tomatoes, tuna and (of course) plenty of cheese.
You can swap for any ketogenic diet friendly vegetables and swap the tuna for cooked turkey bacon or turkey sausage instead.
5. Protein Pancakes With Ground Beef
These unique pancakes are made with plenty of protein and have only 4 ingredients that are all low in grams of carbohydrates, and best of all – no flour is needed to bind them together.
You can make a batch of the pancakes to enjoy straight away or meal prep them ahead of time for the perfect, handy grab and go breakfast option when you don’t have time to cook your first meal of the day.
