Low-Carb Breakfast Menu Ideas

Stumped on what to have for breakfast? Lots of quick ideas here, many of which work for South Beach dieters.

Low Carb Pancakes - Almond Meal

I actually think these low carb pancakes taste better than the old white flour kind. Almond meal is healthier as well.

Flax Meal Peanut Butter Cereal

This yummy hot cereal is full of fiber, and you can make it right in your cereal bowl.

TVP "Oatmeal"

You won't believe how close to oatmeal this is!

Pizza Frittata

This frittata can be for any meal. I like to make it for dinner and eat the leftovers for breakfast or lunch. To make it South Beach Friendly, omit the pepperoni or use low-fat turkey pepperoni.

Blueberry Almond Breakfast Pudding

This easy, healthy, low carb breakfast pudding can be made with any berries or other addtions as listed. Make it in the microwave in under 5 minutes.

Easy Flax Breakfast Pudding

This "pudding" can be put together in the microwave in 3-4 minutes. You can add berries or other "mix-ins" - I have lots of suggestions. The flax gives it lots of fiber and good fat, plus a nice nutty flavor.

Easy Eggs Florentine

You can make this in a few minutes for any meal.

Joe's Special, Laura Style

Every breakfast place in the San Fransisco area seems to have their version of this local classic. Here's mine.
