Thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545262 Tue, 10 May 2016 12:36:54 +0000 mrsjd 2545262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: I always love your food ideas! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545250 Tue, 10 May 2016 12:23:13 +0000 gingerbebe 2545250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think 100 cal packs of oatmeal are making you store fat, but grains can make you bloat if you can't digest them real well, so there's that. Quinoa cereal might work better for you.</p> <p>Anyways, as far as bulking, I would sauté a bunch of greens, then make a little pocket in the pan, crack an egg in there and cover with a lid until the egg is cooked to your liking. Squirt with lemon juice or hot sauce, a few slices of avocado. </p> <p>Or you can just sauté a bunch of veggies and keep them in a Tupperware and make a quick bulked out omelet in the morning. A little chopped Canadian bacon or chopped bacon bits can give lots of flavor for not many calories too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545241 Tue, 10 May 2016 12:10:16 +0000 irene 2545241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holy smokes I just found this: <a href="http://www.paleobread.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.paleobread.com/</a><br /> And it is available for purchase at the whole foods we shop in! I am buying this.</p> <p>I also read on the internet people say do not ever try paleo bread. Do you guys know why? There is another page that rates paleo bread C+ in nutrition value because it is high saturated fat and cholesterol. I don't get it - at least this bread i found said 0 cholestrol. </p> <p>@MrsSRS: Thanks!</p> <p>@mrsjd: So hard NOT to count calories for me, because I eat. A. LOT. if i don't count i won't stop! Besides i am not truly on paleo diet, i still have carbs here and there sneaking in in multiple forms, such as chocolate, popcorn, snack bars, brown rice, even sunflower seeds have some carbs.....etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545179 Tue, 10 May 2016 11:00:56 +0000 mrsjd 2545179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: Yeah I know that can be frustrating if you're a calorie counter. To my knowledge (admittedly limited), the paleo diet emphasizes not counting calories. It's more about eating the right nutrition. Glad these help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545125 Tue, 10 May 2016 10:12:06 +0000 MrsSRS 2545125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: it's not finicky. I do between 350 and 400 depending on what else I have in the oven and bake until the centers aren't jiggly. Maybe 20 minutes? I still use a little spray with silicon, but you don't have to. They will be hard to clean if you don't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545112 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:57:15 +0000 irene 2545112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yin: Wow, that's amazing!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545110 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:56:04 +0000 yin 2545110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: DH started off at 189 lbs at the end of October, and he is down to 155 lbs. Almost 35 lbs lost in 6 months, and it's the lightest he has been since before high school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545106 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:52:56 +0000 irene 2545106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yin: Interesting , in a way i am eating like that except i don't drink milk/high fat things! Still too scared to even try! How does it work for him?</p> <p>@tinyperson: @caterw: That sounds wonderful - i will check it out as well... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545086 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:25:40 +0000 MaryM 2545086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was also going to suggest egg muffins. I make them in individual cruets and freeze them then microwave them at work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545085 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:23:17 +0000 yin 2545085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: It's a high fat, adequate protein, low carb diet to bring your body into ketosis. The body burns fat instead of carbs. More details on Reddit...</p> <p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/keto" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/keto</a></p> <p>DH's meals consists a meat protein and lots of veggies (avoiding starchy, root vegetables). It's not difficult for him because that's how I usually cook for the family. He just omits the carb portion. His go to snack is cheese with pepperoni or sausage. If he is craving food in the evenings after dinner, he typically eats an omelette. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545078 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:12:49 +0000 caterw 2545078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: sprouted grains are whole grains that have germinated to form a little green sprout. They are less starchy whole grains that have more protein and nutrients than regular whole wheat/ grains. </p> <p>Also, regarding fat- if you eat a regulated amount of heathy fats mixed with fruit, veggies, and meat, it keeps you fuller. So eating a piece of toast with peanut butter will keep you full longer than toast and fruit even if the calories are the same. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545074 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:09:25 +0000 tinyperson 2545074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: It's not no-carb, but it's lower on the glycemic index (takes more time for your body to process). It's not paleo, but it's good for diabetics (and for everyone in general). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545071 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:06:30 +0000 caterw 2545071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjd: I usually get Ezekiel Bread or Dave's Killer Bread from either Whole Foods or CostCo. They often keep sprouted bread in the freezer section because it goes bad faster than regular bread since it's preservative free. I just toast it straight from frozen and it turns out fine. Wish I was motivated enough to make my own but sprouting things is just not happening in my teeny apartment 😜 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545069 Tue, 10 May 2016 09:06:24 +0000 irene 2545069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you so much for all the ideas!!! This is awesome :)</p> <p>@mrsjd: Wow! Thanks for all the recipes! The thing that is frustrating is none of them tell you how many calories there are.... I'd probably be eating wayyy too much!</p> <p>@caterw: @tinyperson: What is sprouted grain toast? Is it no carbs.... or what does it do to help with your diet?</p> <p>@MrsSRS: What is the heat and duration - and if I use silicone muffin cups I don't need to spray them with oil at all? Those things are so scary, I have them but never baked with them because they look like they would melt in the oven. :)</p> <p>@yin: I should try kimchee for breakfast! And heavy cream.... wouldn't it be a ton of calories? I have seen somewhere that you suppose to eat fat to burn fat. I am too scared to try, or I don't know what the rule is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545061 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:46:05 +0000 yin 2545061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every morning I eat a fried egg with kimchi. Once my metabolism has started up, I follow with a snack about an hour later. DH is on the Keto diet (no carbs), and he will eat 2 fried eggs, a breakfast sausage and some kimchi. He also drinks coffee with heavy cream (0 carbs). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545040 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:17:43 +0000 MrsSRS 2545040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@irene: Just a little spray. Or silicone muffin cups. You can make a big batch and freeze, but sometimes they get rubbery. I like to make a dozen, keep them in the fridge, and eat them within 5-7 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545037 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:15:29 +0000 tinyperson 2545037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjd: I like Silver Hills Little Big Bread (<a href="http://www.silverhillsbakery.ca/products/sprouted-bread/little-big-bread" rel="nofollow">http://www.silverhillsbakery.ca/products/sprouted-bread/little-big-bread</a>) but I don't know if it's available where you are. It's a Canadian brand, and it's what I've been eating since I was diagnosed with GD. It's really yummy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545033 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:11:22 +0000 mrsjd 2545033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@caterw: I keep hearing about sprouted bread but I haven't tried it yet. Do you purchase it at your grocery store or at a specialty store and do you have a brand you recommend? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545028 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:06:28 +0000 caterw 2545028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sprouted grain toast with 1/3 avocado and a fried egg, side of fruit. I eat this for breakfast all the time and it holds me over til lunch (even while pregnant). Sometimes I do have a snack but not always. You could swap out your lunch eggs/ avocado for some chicken breast or tuna so you aren't eating the same things for breakfast and lunch.</p> <p>I also like sautéed kale or spinach and an egg with fruit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545027 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:04:04 +0000 mrsjd 2545027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I eat primarily paleo (although I'm much more lax now that I'm pregnant). I've never counted calories or carbs while doing it because that is contrary to the supposed method. So I preface this with the fact that I do eat carbs. I need them to perform at a high level while working out. But I generally stick to sweet potatoes, white potatoes, and white rice (on occasion). Also fruit, which obviously has relatively high carb content. For example, I believe a banana basically has as many carbs as a sweet potato.</p> <p>For day to day we typically each eat:<br /> 2 eggs, in season fruit, and some type of meat (canadian bacon, sausage, bacon, ham, turkey, etc). Sometimes I add in half of an avocado. </p> <p>This is a great breakfast make ahead recipe:<br /> <a href="http://fedandfit.com/2014/01/28/the-breakfast-salad-2/" rel="nofollow">http://fedandfit.com/2014/01/28/the-breakfast-salad-2/</a></p> <p>Also, paleo pancakes. Easy and delish. There are a million variations, but here's one. <a href="http://civilizedcavemancooking.com/recipes/breakfast/perfect-paleo-pancakes/" rel="nofollow">http://civilizedcavemancooking.com/recipes/breakfast/perfect-paleo-pancakes/</a></p> <p>Sweet potato hashes are also good! I usually make one with chopped sauteed bacon, shredded sweet potato, and top with a poached or fried egg and avocado. </p> <p>These paleo scones are easy and good:<br /> <a href="http://fedandfit.com/2013/07/28/paleo-blueberry-scones-2/" rel="nofollow">http://fedandfit.com/2013/07/28/paleo-blueberry-scones-2/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545025 Tue, 10 May 2016 08:01:59 +0000 yoursilverlining 2545025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do egg muffin things like @MrsSRS. Very easy, and very easy to switch it up for different flavored ones. Our local grocer makes sausage in-house and has a bunch of amazing ones, so I do different sausage with veggies, tiny bit of cheese and eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545021 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:57:27 +0000 milano14 2545021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Yes, sorry I meant to add at the end that they an easily be omitted from the hash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545019 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:54:53 +0000 Mamaof2 2545019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@milano14: I love sweet potatoes but they are a carb </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545016 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:52:57 +0000 yellowbird 2545016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Egg, salsa and avocado </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545011 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:48:27 +0000 milano14 2545011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My go-to is two fried eggs and aidells chicken apple sausage.<br /> I will add sweet potatoes if I have them as leftovers from the night before (usually diced, tossed in coconut oil and seasonings and baked).<br /> I also make different types of hash: ground beef or turkey, onions, spinach, kale or arugula, apples, spices, sweet potatoes, fennel.<br /> Sometimes I will just have leftovers from the night before (protein and vegetables).<br /> With Paleo I find it the most successful when you stop thinking about breakfast in the traditional sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2545005 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:44:07 +0000 irene 2545005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSRS: Thanks! that sounds delicious. I can make more veggies the dinner the night before. Or maybe I make a batch of these muffins and freeze them. Do I have to add a lot of oil, or just a little spray to the muffin tins/cups?</p> <p>@Mamaof2: haha! But seriously you gave me a really good idea. I can do an egg sandwich if I made my bread. I love egg sandwiches. And I found this which *looks* yummy.

Eat 2 or 3 with salsa.<br /> Or a veggie and 2 egg omelet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/paleo-no-carb-breakfast-ideas#post-2544994 Tue, 10 May 2016 07:35:41 +0000 irene 2544994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Thanks! Do you make your own sprouted flourless wheat bread? Maybe I should think about making my own paleo bread. I can deal with "paleo" toast. I used to love toast.</p> <p>My carb intake happens with my popcorn or fiber snack bar intake :-) Sometimes I do eat a bit of carbs at dinner time too. I slack a lot over the weekends so I had to stay disciplined on the weekdays. </p>
