Springtime is finally here, and it’s the perfect excuse to start making delicious breakfasts again.
Here are 7 recipes that are easy, high in protein, low in carbs, and perfect for your springtime brunch.
#1 Savory Oatmeal With Cheddar and Fried Egg
Suggested serving.
Oats are a great way to fuel your body without boosting the blood glucose. The fried egg and cheddar provide clean protein to keep you feeling full. Try this spin on oatmeal, and you will never turn back.
#2 Healthy Sweet Potato, Black Bean & Avocado Breakfast Burritos
Suggested serving.
Sweet potatoes are loaded with vitamins and minerals, and unlike regular potatoes, they don’t cause a major spike in blood sugar. Black beans provide an excellent source of protein and fiber. This breakfast keeps you going all morning long. Finally, avocado just rounds up the whole meal.
#3 Cheesy Spinach Baked Eggs
Suggested serving.
This recipe is so easy that you can make virtually any morning feel special within a matter of minutes. It contains the perfect balance of protein, fiber, and flavor so that you’re not compromising your health for something delicious.
#4 Simple Vegetable Egg Bake
Suggested serving.
This egg bake is better than most egg bakes because not only does it have eggs, vegetables, and cheese (all the best parts of an egg bake), but it also has a full serving of grains. In other words, it provides sustainable energy for the morning without the spike in blood sugar that often comes with breakfast.
#5 Honey Lime Quinoa Fruit Salad
Suggested serving.
How exciting is this? Honey, lime, and fruit are a super combo as it stands, but when combined with quinoa, this breakfast is taken up to a whole new level. Quinoa is an excellent source of protein and healthy omegas that doesn’t spike blood sugar. Make this breakfast with low-sugar fruits, raw honey, and you will be set!
#6 Red Pepper & Goat Cheese Frittata
Suggested serving.
This breakfast meal is easy to put together but feels super gourmet thanks to the red peppers and goat cheese. The combination of ingredients is high in protein and low in carbohydrates, which makes it a safe breakfast to indulge in.
#7 Shakshuka on a Budget
Suggested serving.
Quite possibly my favorite breakfast is the shakshuka. It has all the delicious ingredients of a regular healthy egg breakfast but is heavy on the veggies and egg yolk. This recipe provides a full serving of veggies and protein so that you can feel good about this indulgence.
