Eggs
Eggs are an integral component of any healthy diet, and particularly beneficial when followed as part of a ketogenic one. Packed full of proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals they’re one of the most versatile food options to add into breakfast–you can have them boiled, scrambled, poached, or even fried!
Eggs are an excellent source of protein and healthy fats to support muscle retention during weight loss, with their satiating properties helping reduce overall caloric intake, furthering weight loss. Eggs also contain vitamin D which has been proven to reduce depression, prostate cancer and dementia risks as well as high concentrations of lutein and zeaxanthin which help protect macular degeneration.
Eggs can be an ideal source of nutrition for most individuals; however, those who have a family history of cardiovascular disease or diabetes should limit their consumption as eggs contain cholesterol that could raise their blood levels and it is vitally important to consume a varied diet that includes other sources of important vitamins.
These delicious egg recipes make an irresistibly satisfying way to start your Keto day off right. Packed full of protein and fat, they can easily be customized to fit your personal preferences – Turkish eggs make an especially tasty low-carb breakfast choice as it uses kale and red onion in place of bread for maximum satiation!
Baked egg cups provide an easy and filling way to begin your day. Made with eggs, salt, and pepper for a protein-rich treat that you can customize however you wish – from low carb veggies to meats! Ideal for meal prepping days as they keep well in the refrigerator for quick breakfast on-the-go!
Create an exciting keto-friendly breakfast with eggs by mixing in various veggies and cheeses. Make an omelet filled with low-carb ingredients like mushrooms, spinach, chiles and cheddar for an satisfying morning meal or create egg biscuits by whisking eggs with low-carb ingredients into muffin tins before baking.
Greek Yogurt
Yogurt is an exceptionally nutritious food, providing calcium, phosphorus, and B vitamins, according to Harvard Health. Plus it’s loaded with protein. Yogurt makes an ideal breakfast choice when mixed with cereal or fruit but keep in mind it contains carbohydrates; to control carb intake choose plain yogurt without added sugars such as fructose corn syrup while pairing it with foods that will increase its nutrient value.
Add low-carb granola for an additional source of nutrition in your ketogenic yogurt breakfast. It will release energy slowly throughout the morning without creating an energy spike, plus protein powder can make an easy breakfast shake!
Greek yogurt can fit easily into a keto-based diet, although the latter is considered more healthful due to being strained for thicker texture with lower carbohydrate content.
Probiotic-rich yogurt provides significant health benefits to the digestive system. Packed with calcium, phosphorus, potassium and B vitamins like riboflavin and folate for maximum vitamin absorption, yogurt is also an ideal dairy alternative in many products such as sour cream or creme fraiche.
Full-fat or whole milk Greek yogurt is an ideal ketogenic breakfast choice, due to its versatility and delicious taste. Unfortunately, however, it also contains more calories and fat. Furthermore, full-fat versions tend to be more costly than their lower fat or non fat counterparts.
Labneh, which is a cross between yogurt and cheese, offers another tasty alternative with its milder flavor and lighter texture than sour cream – not to mention being higher in both fats and proteins while having fewer carbs than traditional yogurt varieties.
Yogurt made from alternative sources such as coconut or almond milk is another healthy choice, while those formulated for Keto diets typically feature less carbohydrates and more fat content.
Freezer Breakfast Pockets
A keto diet consists of high levels of fats and proteins to promote satiety, while restricting carbs for those living with diabetes. Diabetes patients benefit greatly from following this lifestyle because it helps decrease glucose in their blood while encouraging use of ketones as energy sources.

Keto Shake
There are a lot of weight loss shakes out there that claim to be Keto-friendly, but they often contain too many carbohydrates and sugar that will prevent ketosis from happening. Plus, many contain artificial flavors and preservatives so as to maintain shelf life. But don’t despair: making your own healthy Keto shake that meets both criteria is much simpler!
Blender or food processor, vanilla protein powder or collagen powder and various sweeteners such as monk fruit extract, stevia, erythritol or allulose will do nicely; coconut oil or MCT oil could provide energy-boosting fats without adding carbs into your mix!
