Low Carb Breakfast Ideas (without eggs) (2024)

When you need a high protein, low carb breakfast, but you’re tired of eating eggs, this list is for you! My top 15 low carb breakfast ideas that doesn’t include eggs.

For the record, I’m a big fan of carbs! Carbs are essential for my weight loss and muscle building goals. However, there really is a limit to each macronutrient, and carbs is the easiest one to overdo it.

So, starting your day with a lower carb breakfast is a good idea when your overall goal is to reduce your carbs.

I’m also a big fan of eggs!! But I’ve had many people email me looking for low carb ideas that didn’t include eggs for one reason or another. It could be an allergy, or that they’re just tired of eggs!

So, here’s my favorite 15 breakfast ideas, without eggs!
