Whether you’re vegetarian or just looking for more low carb, keto friendly breakfast ideas, you’re sure to find heaps of inspiration.
- Fried Eggs and Vegetables
Start by sautéing your low carb vegetable of choice from the following selection:
Mushrooms
Cauliflower
Broccoli
Green Beans
Spinach
Once they are cooked to your liking, make room in your frying pan, add a bit of butter or coconut oil and then fry your eggs until cooked. You could serve with some sour cream or avocado on the side for extra healthy fat and flavour.
- Breakfast Smoothies
Combine your choice of keto-friendly breakfast ingredients into a delicious breakfast. Here are some mix-in ideas to make your own keto vegetarian breakfast smoothie:
Almond milk
Coconut milk
Coconut/Greek/natural yoghurt
Fresh or frozen berries – strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
4 Cream
Stevia Cheese
Mascarpone Cheese
Coconut Oil / MCT Oil
Chia Seeds
Cocoa Powder
Protein Powder
- Cheesy Cauliflower
This is like eating macaroni and cheese for breakfast. Add the liquid to the pan and fry the cauliflower until desired.
Then add a few tablespoons of heavy cream and sour cream, sprinkle over the grated cheese and cook until it bubbles and the cheese melts.
- Chia Seed Pudding
In a bowl, combine low-carb yogurt, sugar, stevia and chia seeds. Stir to combine and you can enjoy the pudding immediately or leave it in the fridge for a few minutes, hours or overnight to thicken.
The longer you wait for chia seeds to sunflower, the thicker they become. When you’re ready to enjoy your chia pudding, add a handful of fruit, nuts, or toppings of your choice.
- Avocado and Feta
This breakfast is very simple but very delicious. All you have to do is cut the avocado in half, remove the flesh and mix it with crumbled feta cheese. I like to tear it up on a plate and eat it with a spoon.
You can drizzle some avocado or olive oil on it and add some salt.
- Hot Chocolate
And some keto followers choose to skip breakfast or drink bulletproof coffee for breakfast. Sometimes I just have a cup of hot chocolate for breakfast. - Scrambled Eggs with Spinach and Feta Cheese
Prepare the scrambled eggs according to your favorite recipe. When the eggs are almost to your desired consistency, crumble the feta cheese and add a few handfuls of spinach.
Cook until the feta cheese melts slightly and the spinach wilts.
