Breakfast ideas???

micheleredit · 07-26-2011, 08:30 AM

As a beginner this plan looks awesome and something I could definitely do for life.
However I need some help forming some menu ideas. What are people eating for breakfast?? So far I see eggs and coffee.

Thanks!!!!

I love steak and eggs with home made salsa.... YUMMMMMMMMMMM! and lots of cilantro

Wow this is gonna take a while to get my head around it.

No cereal, toast, oatmeal like I'm used to. Just have to keep telling myself how much healthier I'm gonna be!!!

Eggs is my staple ...in Robb Wolfs book he had a 30 day menu and it has some great ideas in it. I had to return it to the library before I could jot them down..so I am going to get it again.

Yeah I may have to get his book. I'm gonna need some ideas

I love scrambled eggs with mixed veggies.... sauted spinach topped with fried eggs
today was fried eggs & sauted zucchini
crustless quiche .. minus the cheese if you are not doing cheese

smoothies

google paleo breakfast and I saw some ideas come up but I cant link to those sites.

Awesome!!!! I just got back from the grocery store. I can't wait to start this tomorrow.

I rarely eat breakfast, but I try to keep it simple. Either eggs or steak and eggs, or something like that. I do keep fresh pico-de-galo type salsa on hand(just tomato, jalapeno, cilantro, onions, lime and vinegar)for my eggs. I just love it on them

I'm weird about breakfast, I like to go on the treadmill with an empty stomach (I do drink black coffee before) so I usually eat after walking.
Its usually 10-11 am when I'm done, so I will have a snack, bite of this or that leftover?
I eat a BIG salad with protein for lunch or again whatever is left from dinner.

I don't always eat breakfast (except coffee) but I feed my husband the same thing every day

He eats: 2 bacon slices, 2 scrambled eggs with sauteed bell peppers/onions, 1/2 avocado. He drinks coffee w/ coconut milk.

Or if we have leftovers from dinner I may use that instead.

Any egg-less ideas? I'm not actually eating paleo, but I'd like to reduce the amount of dairy I eat, which means getting away from my usual cottage cheese or Greek yoghurt - and the paleo section seemed like a good place for dairy-free ideas. I never really liked eggs very much, but these days seem to be allergic to them.

In the past I've had meat, maybe with fried tomatoes or something similar, but I don't seem to be in the mood for "dinner foods" at breakfast at the moment.

I've seen recipes using ground almonds or other nuts and mixing in coconut milk to make a "cereal" (topped with fruit often in recipes) but I've never tried it.
