WIAW – A Week Worth of Paleo Breakfasts

by Amber on January 16, 2013

Happy Wednesday everyone! It’s been a long time since I’ve done a What I ate Wednesday post, so today I decided to post a weeks worth of the 21DSD approved breakfast plates I’ve been munching on! I realize that a lot of people get stuck when it come to breakfast and go for the easiest thing possible. But the fact is that breakfasts like these can be easy too as long as you plan and prepare.

Most of the food below were cooked in the evenings. All of the roasted carrots and eggplant were roasted in the oven while I tidied up my apartment or did homework. The steak and steamed asparagus were left overs from dinner. The only things I had to cook in the morning was the eggs and cut up the avocado and tomato, both took only minutes. The bacon wrapped kale and egg cups were made the week before. I cooked them in the oven at night and ate two for breakfast each morning. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Back when I had a job which required me to wake up at 5am, I would cook egg, kale and beef bacon casserole ahead of time and quickly heat them up in the mornings. So there is no excuse for running out of the house with an empty stomach nor chowing down on bagels and muffins every morning! :)

Ah, I’ve been drooling over your breakfast Instagram photos all week. You’re so right – no excuse not to have breakfast. It can be prepared the night before! Or make a giant egg bake or frittata and you’ve got breakfast ready all week!

Heya, those photos of food look so tempting and tasty! I’ve seen portobello mushrooms around, but have never really tried them. Do they taste the same as normal button mushrooms? I’m really curious, they look really yum :)

Those look like my suppers!
Just kidding..but I like to save bacon for when I can savour it…like on my steak, or in my supper.
Eggs make me really gassy as I found out this week :S

Back to plain greek yogurt (nice fats) with walnuts for me

Great inspiration for some Paleo meals! I’m going to show this post to my parents who eat a Paleo-type diet (GAPS) so they can get some ideas. I think they may be getting a little bored of frittatas (my dad) and french toast scrambles (my mom). :)

Thank you so much! Their breakfasts sounds amazing already, but I understand the need to mix things up every once and a while! I hope this helps give them some ideas!
