I am a big believer in the health benefits of a low carb lifestyle and the paleo diet has reached HUGE popularity in recent years. While you may think that breakfast is one of the easiest meals to eat low carb with all the egg, bacon and breakfast meats, it is also easy to get bored of the same scrambled eggs and omelettes day after day. So, check out these healthy paleo breakfast recipes to mix things up and keep you on track for weight loss and reaching your health goals.
1. 2 Minute Paleo Porridge
This would surely be Goldilocks favorite if she was on a paleo diet 😉 If you are a big oatmeal fan, you may miss it when you go on the paleo diet and this is a fantastic & quick swap. As soon as you try it, you won’t be missing your boring instant oats any more! (via The Paleo Mama)
