Low Carb Breakfast No Eggs

1070 Views 9 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  LedBoots
Hello,

Does anyone have suggestions for a low carb breakfast with no eggs?

I can't have bread, oatmeal or pancakes. I can do dairy (milk, cheese).

(if there is a better place to ask this question let me know)

Thanks so much!

Could you explain why you are avoiding carbohydrates? The American Diabetes Association actually recommends low fat, high-carbohydrate vegan diets. Please consider this quote from their website:

"A vegetarian diet is a healthy option, even if you have diabetes. Research supports that following this type of diet can help prevent and manage diabetes. In fact, research on vegan diets has found that carbohydrate restrictions were not necessary and still promoted weight loss and lowered participants' A1C"

Link to this statement: http://www.diabetes.org/food-and-fitness/food/planning-meals/meal-planning-for-vegetarians/

Kaiser Permanente (one of the largest health insurance companies in the United States) has published a well-written vegetarian nutrition guide, and they recommend low-fat vegetarian diets to patients who are trying to manage or reverse their diabetes: http://www.lanimuelrath.com/wp-content/uploads/New-Plant-Based-Booklet-1214_tcm28-781815.pdf
i have seen recipes for TVP "oatmeal", that would be a low carb breakfast.
Would tofu scramble count as low-carb?
I would say it's low carb. It's my go to breakfast. I love tofu scrambles!

Chickpea flour (also called besan flour) omelets
http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2014/12/chickpea-omelet-mix.html

There are a million ways to make those. I make it like a pancake and add in salsa and raw spinach, then fold it over and let it heat.

Sauteed (in water or a little oil) cubed tempeh, a few cups of chopped leafy green like kale or bok choy or collard greens, and cubed fresh pineapple chunks. To keep it more low carb, use bell peppers instead of the pineapple and add some spices, or just add a small clementine in there (for the extra vitamin c to absorb all that iron and calcium from the leafy greens).

Scrambled chickpeas, celery, onion, peppers, zucchini, spices over some quinoa or another whole grain.

Handful of raw whole almonds or brazil nuts or pumpkin seeds; a few dates or a mango or other fruit; Or try peanut butter or almond butter with an apple or two and a glass of plant milk

Raw soaked (for an hour or so or overnight) buckwheat groats with chia or ground flaxseeds, berries, chopped walnuts, a splash of plant milk

Fresh fruit and spinach salad.
Fruit leather, handful of nuts, raisins?
