So you may be looking for a breakfast meal option that requires no eggs. If you are vegetarian, you may be looking for options other than eggs that can provide you with protein. Here is an idea, eat wood chips. I am just kidding. By the way, I got the term wood chips from a person who teased me about eating plant based steak. They would ask: “what are you eating?” Woodchips or if I was eating something else they would say ” No woodchips?” All jokes aside I will give you veg breakfast ideas, particularly vegetarian breakfast ideas with no eggs.
Pancakes -Kodiak (Protein)
Check out your local grocery store for the brand “Kodiak.” The brand sells mixes that you can either make pancakes with or waffles. The brand offers adequate protein. Here is a link to Kodiak’s website: http://www.kodiakcakes.com. I first tried making waffles with this brand in 2022. I love it!! This option makes for a great vegetarian breakfast idea. As a bonus add blueberries! You will love it!
Cream Of Rice
So this cream of rice option is my jam. I love cream of rice. To add more flavor to cream of rice, you could add cinnamon. It offers about 7 grams of protein per serving if you use plant based milk. My favorite plant based drink is coconut milk. I recommend it. Of course you can use whatever dairy free milk alternative you like. By the way, check out my cream of rice recipe here. Enjoy this no egg breakfast option.
Waffles And Banana Smoothie
Waffles and a protein packed banana smoothie with chia seeds is a great option for a eggless breakfast.
Beyond Sausage and Spinach Casserole
The brand Beyond has a plant base sausage that I love. If you happen to be curious about other options. Here is a meatless blog post: https://stephaniealicia.com/5-meatless-breakfast-options-at-home/
Breakfast Burger (With Lentils)
You can make a breakfast burger with lentils, apricots, dates and pecans. Hope you like this eggless breakfast option. Lentils are packed with protein.
Alternative Meat, Steel Cut Oatmeal And Grapefruit
This option is great for a vegetarian breakfast without eggs. I love steel cut oatmeal because of its mild nutty flavor. I first discovered steel cut oatmeal in 2018 from another person and I decided to give it a try. I like it better than regular oatmeal.
Breakfast Pizza With Beyond
French Toast
Smoked liquid to create meatless bacon. You can create meatless bacon by using rice paper sheets or thinly sliced potatoes.
You can make a “meat” and top it with liquid smoke, which has a hickory flavor
Fried Potatoes with grits
Eat fried potatoes with sauteed onions and garlic with grits. This combination sounds yummy.
Breakfast Okra Okra is not just for dinner. You can have okra for breakfast if you combine it with other ingredients.
English Muffin
Have an English muffin for breakfast and ditch the eggs. You can cook a potato patty and put it inside of the English muffin.
Dave’s Bagel with tomatoes, onions, and beyond meat
Wheat Cereal
Eat Wheat Cereal
Add wheat cereal to your list of eggless meals.
