Low Carb Breakfasts Ideas
5 Energizing Low Carb Breakfasts Ideas
By now, it has been pounded into your head more times
than you’d like to remember; breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Yet,
many people skip this meal altogether, for reasons that range from “no time,”
to “can’t stomach food” to “I don’t like breakfast.”
However, regardless of the best lame excuse, you can
muster, there are reasons too many to mention why you NEED to have breakfast,
and there is an endless number of options for you to consider.
Just in the case you don’t know why breakfast is so important, here’s a quick refresher:
Ø
A Healthy Breakfast Revs Up Your Metabolism-
Think skipping meals will have you looking like a Greek god/goddess? Nope,
research has shown that people who miss meals end up slowing their own
metabolism, hindering long term calorie burn, and hence weight loss. Consume a
meal loaded with proteins, healthy fats, vitamins, minerals and fiber to kick
your gears into motion!
Ø
You’re Less Likely To Snack On Trash- a bowl of cereal? More like a bowl of TRASH. Breakfast cereals are notoriously fake
on nutritional value and offer no real incentive for your body to feel
satisfied. Chances are, if you eat cereal for breakfast, you will be having the
munchies by 9AM.
Ø
You Become A More Productive Citizen-
be it in school, or work, the benefits of a solid breakfast are unmistakable.
You are sharp as a blade, extremely efficient in work tasks, and do not
procrastinate! Your teacher or boss is likely to notice!
By now you may be thinking that it’s about right to go
load up on bread and pancakes at breaky. Not at all; in fact, diets high in
refined, starchy and simple sugars are actually the worst in regulating your
energy levels and keep you working at peak performance.
Instead, Consider
These Amazing Low Carb, Energizing Breakfasts To Keep You On The Go:
Wheat-Free
Pancakes
Good news for you- you can still have that pancake, but
this time it is 10 times healthier. Typical wheat-free pancakes are made of
almond flour, which is extremely low in sugar and carbs, but a decent source of
proteins. The natural flavor of almonds means that your pancake will still
taste excellent even without added sugar. You can serve with a few berries on
top, but keep in mind that berries are reasonably high in sugar content.
Muffins
These are not your typical muffins, in fact, these are
even more delicious! These muffins are made of cheese (mainly cheddar) and
broccoli, along with eggs and veggies of your choice. They’re easy and fast to
prepare, so you can even make them in the evening before bed, and have
breakfast waiting for you when you get up! What you get is a muffin high in
protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals and very low in carbs- just what you
need to get up and go.
Baked Eggs
And Bacon With Wilted Spinach
If your stomach is a bottomless pit, this will suit
you just fine! This breakfast meal is healthy and very filling. To make, just
line a baking pan with spinach, followed by bacon, then top with eggs, veggies
of your choice and two tablespoons of grated cheese and pop in the oven for
about 20 minutes.
Trust me, you won’t be very hungry for snacks today!
Frittatas
Made Of Tomato
This will be likely one of the tastiest frittatas you
can make, and also one of the healthiest. Eggs, a bit if bacon, and cheese are filled
into a tomato center and baked for about 15 minutes. The result? A breakfast
meal rich in protein, lycopene, and many vitamins and minerals.
Smoked
Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus
If you’re not a major fan of baking, then you can whip
up the old grill for a quickie. These bacon-wrapped asparagus stalks make for a
tasty breakfast and are extremely convenient and easy to carry around. This
opens your eyes to a whole other world of delicious recipes that are awesomely
healthy and low carb!
