Hi there.
First off I wanted to introduce myself . Im Jen 36 yo female living in Cali. My BF and I are starting the LOw Carb Diet today. I have had success before so I kn ow I will again. He did want me to come on here and ask for suggestions on Breakfast ideas that we dont have to cook every single morning before heading to work. I figured this would be the best place to ask. Thanx ahead of time for your help.

This thread links to two of the favorites around here the "Mock Danish" and breakfast muffins. http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ad.php?t=31992

Any leftovers too. This morning I had leftover hot wings and celery sticks. LOL

Deviled eggs are good grab and goes.

Fritattas are good too.

Re: Ideas

I make breakfast "muffins" on Sunday night and store in the fridge. DH and I each take 2 for breakfast in the morning - heated in the microwave for approx 45 seconds. I believe that I received this recipe from Starmaker.

Breakfast Muffins
1 dozen eggs (I usually end up using 10 eggs)
1 package of breakfast sausage
Shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)

I spray a muffin pan with Pam spray and preheat the oven to 350. I brown the breakfast sausage like you would ground hamburger. I drain and then fill the muffin tins about 3/4 full, then add shredded cheese to the top of each muffin. Scramble the eggs and pour the liquid over each muffin. Bake for approx. 20 minutes.

I'm a convenience girl, so these muffins really work for us during the week. Sometimes I will use a little salsa on them while eating to kick it up a notch and so that I don't get bored. I also try not to eat them on the weekends - again so that I don't get bored with them.


You could also make egg salad in advance. I boil the eggs, peel, add in some chopped bacon, small amount of mustard, mayo, salt and pepper.

Good luck!

Re: Ideas

On induction I made egg cups. brown sausage. put into muffin tins. Add egg to each whole, break yolk. I add onion powder and mushrooms to each tin as well. Bake until eggs are set. THese are great cold or heated up with cheese and will easily keep for a week. (you can substitute the sausage out with bacon, ham, any meat really.)

This morning I had greek yogurt (for the dairy rung) and leftover bbq pork.

Re: Ideas

Hi and welcome.

Any food on the Induction Acceptable Foods list is fair game for breakfast. So you never have to limit yourself to eggs and bacon for breakfast---ever.

I typically have leftovers for breakfast---they're already cooked, I just need to pull them out of the refrigerator and eat.

Re: Ideas

I keep hard boiled eggs around. And sliced pepperoni and american cheese in tupperware containers. I don't know if I'll get yelled at about the pepperoni thing since they have additives as far as I know. There's the nice mental image of me in rush hour traffic trying to eat a whole ham though that I'm in love with... There's cream cheese rolled in lox (if you prepare and grab).
