I am dairy free and trying to get my cholesterol down so I am having to be inventive about my breakfasts, these are my 2 favs on rotation incase they inspire anyone and they both last for 4 days in the fridge.

What are your fav low carb go to breakfasts?

Tofu scramble, I batch book 3-4 portions at once and I serve with fried mushrooms and avocado
firm tofu, onion powder, powdered garlic, S&P, nutritional yeast, turmeric + water / milk

Mexican beef with beans - serve with lime and avocado + optional fried egg on top
Lean mince, oxo cube / soy sauce, onions, mushrooms, cajun seasoning, water, black beans & fresh coriander

I do eggs every way possible, often having them with bread from the low carb food company. Their bread is amazing - tastes delicious and you wouldn’t know I ts low carb. You have to freeze it as soon as it arrives though because it doesn’t keep and goes mouldy very quickly because there are no preservatives in it.

I also like turkey rashers, with spinach and mushrooms.

Apart from this, I’m not much help as I can never think of anything else! To be honest, I’m not that keen on breakfast so I don’t have it very often and tend to wait until midday to eat.

It's not going to help you, sorry, but I have Fage GreekYogurt.

I haven't had much luck with scrambled tofu, do you have a brand of tofu you recommend?

I'm vegetarian & don't eat eggs, so I find low carb breakfasts difficult. I can't have 2 servings of evening meals as it's too many carbs for me, but could you?

I live in Australia so the brand I buy might not be too helpful, I just buy firm tofu from the shops and whatever I have seems to work
