Sleep is a time machine to breakfast. Who doesn't like that?
After doing whole30 and paleo resets a few times, one thing I grew tired of quickly were eggs. There were just so easy to make and since we always had a few in the fridge, they were easy to turn to, but one can only have eggs so many ways. I know they are a great source of protein, but it's time to change it up a bit. The one thing I've learned is that breakfast is not restricted to certain items. You can actually eat anything you want at breakfast provided it's nutritious. Here's my list of breakfast items that either fit the whole30 or keto lifestyle. The great thing about these is that they are low on sugar, but packed with nutritious protein and vitamins so you won't feel that sluggishness that sugary cereals or bread give you.
