Breakfast ideas instead of bacon/eggs? - Page 7

Charski · 02-26-2006, 04:47 PM

Unless my math skills have totally gone to h*ll, that is only 6 net carbs per slice - 11 carbs minus 5 fiber.

Kinda like the Ezekiel bread which I love, which DOES have yeast but everything else is sprouted grains. So tasty and filling! And sometimes I have a piece of that with SF peanut butter (homemade or Trader Joe's, just peanuts and salt) and that will hold me for breakfast.

I'll have a chef's salad at the local diner some mornings.

2 burger patties centered with mushrooms and melted cheese.....amazing makes a good sandwhich, also good centred with tomato and cheese or bacon and cheese.

I took Mama Lupe's lc tortillas this morning and put some shredded roasted pork in them with salsa, nopalitos(cactus) and a smidgen of cheese for something different. I needed a break from eggs and Eggbeaters! Needed to finish up those tortillas before they got stale (that's my excuse anyway!!!!

Since chicken pot pie is my daughter's favorite food, I make it often. I use a combination of the Atkins recipe, the Carbquik recipe and my old standard, Fanny Farmer. I was in a hurry the other morning and heated up the leftovers for breakfast and everybody loved it -- very comforting and filling on a very cold March morning! I usually give everybody else some applesauce with cinnamon on the side and add some rhubarb for me. I suppose leftover chicken and gravy on lc biscuits would be the same thing if you didn't want to go to the trouble to make chicken pot pie!

Great idea Oliveoyl - Tell me, what do you do with your rhubarb? I bought some recently and ended up just stewing it and eating it like that with Splenda in it but am looking for more ideas...I LOVE rhubarb, having eaten it a lot in a Crumble while growing up overseas.

As for breakfast this morning, I ended up having one slice of Spongebob's bread toasted with some butter on it and 4 oz of Greek style yogurt with 1/4c of unsweetened mixed berries & 1TBSP flax meal mixed into it. Very filling and a nice change from eggs.

I also like to make a nut crust and put stewed rhubarb in that and top it with a little custard or some whipped cream. A friend of mine makes a rhubarb custard pie with bananas that's really good, although I realize bananas are high-carb. Maybe a few slices wouldn't hurt! I love stewed rhubarb with vanilla and lots of cinnamon. Some cookbooks recommend a pat of butter on top, and although I love butter, I don't really like it on rhubarb. Another favorite breakfast (from Joy of Cooking) is lc biscuits, rhubarb and sausages. I've been thinking along the lines of a rhubarb chutney lately, but I haven't got around to trying that yet!

One more idea in my long, long list of things to try someday: there's a Peaches and Cream omelet in the Atkins Cookbook: a sweet cream cheese omelet filled with stewed peaches that I thought might be really good filled with stewed rhubarb instead. If you haven't tried them, the omelet recipes in the Atkins Cookbook are out of this world!

Breakfast is most difficulty for me too because I don't like the texture of scrambled eggs. I usually eat leftovers but I never thought about eating the low carb cheesecake. I have a good receipe for it if anyone needs it.

We always need GOOD recipes, that's what keeps us going

Please share your recipe.

I sometimes make shredded cabbage with cripsy bacon. It's good
with roast chicken also. Eggs don't always agree with me. Maybe I've eaten too many. I like leftover homemade
soups too.

Nana Lee/MA · 11-02-2006, 01:36 PM

How about a nice bowl of strawberries and cream oatmeal? Sounds good, huh?
I just bought a package from Netrition. It has only 190 gms sodium(9% MDR), 0 gms cholesterol, 14 gms carbs MINUS 12 gms fiber = 2 net gms carbs, and 12 gms proteins! O gms sugar!

Try it, you'll like it!
