A high-protein breakfast thus assumes a greater role, helping you sustain energy through the day.

Eggs, Avocados, and Veggies

Dr Jeremy called this easy to make breakfast dish a “super classic.” All you have to do is:

• Scramble 4 eggs in a pan with avocado oil.
• Sauté peppers and mushrooms.
• Combine eggs and vegetables in a bowl.
• Slice half an avocado on top.
• Banana Protein Pancakes

For those who highly enjoy pancakes, this one’s both nutritious and delectable.

• Add all ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend.
• Melt butter in a pan over low flame and add 1/4 cup of batter to the pan.
• Mix one scoop of protein powder with 1/2 banana and almond milk. Pour over the pancakes.
• Top with blueberries.

If you have little time, then this works as a great option. All you have to do is combine the following in a blender:

• Coat the baking dish properly with coconut oil, avocado oil, ghee, or butter.
• Combine ingredients in a large bowl and mix them all together until well-blended.
• Transfer the batter into the greased baking dish. If you enjoy chocolate, sprinkle a few extra chips on top.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, just until the centre is set. Avoid overtaking, it’s best when the top is crisp and the inside stays soft.
• Let it cool slightly, then enjoy it warm.
