Starting the day with a good breakfast can be a great way to get your day on track and help your blood sugar stay stable. We recommend taking Glucocil with lunch and dinner. We often have people reach out to us and ask if they can take Glucocil with breakfast, as it’s one of their larger meals. We think that’s a great choice if it fits a person’s lifestyle.
As February is a chilly month, it’s unsurprising that it is also National Hot Breakfast Month. It’s a yearly event to suggest everyone take the time to enjoy a hot, fresh breakfast. Making breakfast not only gives you a warm morning meal, it also leads to waking up early and getting a jump on your day. You may find yourself starting other tasks sooner, feeling more alert. It’s a way to appreciate the morning and help you ease into your day! With that in mind, we are sharing four low-carb breakfast recipes.
We have a team member from New Jersey who waxes poetically about Taylor ham, egg and cheese. You can’t get Taylor ham, a pork product, anywhere other than specialty delis here in San Diego. If you love the sandwich but can’t find the meat, we recommend this great breakfast sandwich that uses deli ham, egg and cheese instead! It features homemade bread made in the microwave and is ready to enjoy in 20 minutes! A serving has 480 calories, five grams of carbs, two grams of fiber and 38 grams of fat. Get the recipe.
We love stuffed peppers. It’s why we have shared so many recipes for them over the year. It is such a versatile dish that immediately, by its nature, gets an extra veggie into your day. This version of a stuffed pepper mixes onions, mushrooms, chorizo and cheese for a protein-rich start to the day and then tops it off with an egg. It’s a great breakfast if you have company because while it does bake in the oven for a while, it doesn’t have too much active cooking time. A serving has 290 calories, eight grams of carbs, two grams of fiber and 20 grams of fat. Get the recipe.
Our team loves fast food. We don’t love the nutritional content of most fast-food items. So, when we can make versions of them at home, we prefer to. These great burritos are a copycat of McDonald's sausage burritos. The wonderful thing about these is that not only are they lower in carbs and healthier for you, but they also freeze and reheat well. That makes having a hot breakfast easier on busy mornings. A serving has 296 calories, eight grams of carbs, three grams of fiber and 17 grams of fat. Get the recipe.
If you are looking for something more gourmet and less fast-food, we have a second burrito option for you. This one cuts out all the carbs from the tortillas by using egg wraps, and it’s filled with bacon, lettuce, tomato and avocado with mayo. To some folks, this sounds like a great twist on a burrito; to others, it’s a new form of a BLT. Either way, it’s a great breakfast! A serving has 411 calories, eight grams of carbs, four grams of fiber and 37 grams of fat. Get the recipe.
We hope you enjoy more hot breakfasts with these great recipes.
