When you need a protein packed meal for breakfast to kick off your day, your immediate thought may be some eggs with a few slices of bacon, some toast and some slivers of avocado. Many of you may have an aversion of this due to some food allergies, gut issues, or you just don't care for eggs! While that is totally fine (haters!) it does leave us with a bigger question in mind: what the heck should you eat for breakfast?
The truth is folks, there are plenty of other options besides a mess of scrambled eggs that are filled with plenty of protein, vitamins, minerals and plenty of flavor. Being creative and learning how to substitute different items in your pantry for healthy options is fun! Not to mention that giant tub of protein in your pantry? Yeah, you can use that for much more than a shake.
