But figuring out what to eat when you wake up can be a challenge (especially if you’re a toast lover!). With oats, many fruits, and even some yogurt out of the running, the options can feel kind of limited. (And eating a piece of grilled salmon before a morning run isn’t exactly appetizing for everyone.)
To help, we found the best ketogenic diet breakfast recipes from around the web—and the possibilities are going to surprise you. Waffles?! Fritters?! We’ve got it all.
Below, you’ll find some of the most delicious, simple, and innovative ways to do breakfast while living keto (the healthy way). Not only are they easy to execute, most also include a nice serving of veggies. (That’s important because keto eaters often get wrapped up in the fat-and-protein game and forget that vegetables are still the most important food group!)
