Inside the Paleo Breakfast Recipe Book

After months in the kitchen, I've finally finished my first recipe book all about Paleo Breakfast Recipes. I'm thrilled with the result, an ebook of well over 100 pages of Paleo breakfast recipes to suit every situation and taste, with beautiful photos to tempt you into the kitchen.

I know how hard it is to find time to make a good breakfast, so there is a chapter on grab and go breakfasts, quick (but still delicious) breakfast recipes and also drinkable Paleo breakfast recipes.

I've also included chapters covering alternatives to your former favourite SAD breakfasts, child friendly breakfasts, lots of egg free recipes, meat-free recipes (a lot of people can’t face meat for breakfast) as well as fancy breakfast recipes, for when you have a bit more time and want to impress.

Recipes are easy to follow and clearly laid out, with both imperial and metric measurements. If you buy this book in conjunction with one of my other ebooks, I offer big discounts.

I thought I’d share one of the breakfast recipes from the book here…

Breakfast Mushroom Saucers

Ingredients:

• 4 large portobello mushrooms
• 4 rashers bacon
• coconut oil
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 200g (7oz) spinach
• 75g (2.5oz) grated cheese (optional, if primal or lacto-paleo)
• 30g (2 tablespoons) pine nut kernels
• fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 avocado

How To:

Wash the mushrooms and set aside the stalks to use in another dish.

Cut the bacon to match the size of the mushrooms, and fry in the coconut oil in a pan over a medium heat, until your desired level of crispness has been reached.

Coat the mushrooms in the leftover bacon fat (or more coconut oil) & season with salt & pepper, to taste.

Grill the mushrooms for a few minutes, under a medium heat, making sure they don't burn.

Meanwhile, steam the spinach in a saucepan for a couple of minutes.

Top each mushroom with the bacon, then spinach. If using cheese, top with grated cheese and grill until the cheese melts. Top with pine kernels and chopped parsley.

Serve with sliced avocado and enjoy.

Why Breakfast Matters on a Paleo Diet

It’s often said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day — and this is especially true when following a Paleo lifestyle. After a night of fasting, your body is ready for real, nutrient-dense food to set the tone for stable energy, reduced cravings, and mental clarity. Starting your day with quality protein, healthy fats, and unprocessed ingredients helps keep your blood sugar balanced and eliminates the need for mid-morning snacks or caffeine crashes.

One of the biggest benefits of Paleo breakfasts is their versatility. Whether you’re a fan of savoury starts, light smoothies, or hearty baked dishes, there’s a Paleo option that fits seamlessly into your routine. My breakfast recipe book aims to show just how exciting and satisfying a grain-free, dairy-light (or dairy-free) start to the day can be — without relying on processed alternatives or complicated prep.

Planning Ahead for Easy Paleo Mornings

One of the best ways to stay consistent with Paleo breakfasts is to plan ahead. A little prep over the weekend can make weekday mornings stress-free and nutritious. Batch cooking things like egg muffins, Paleo breakfast bars, or baked vegetable slices ensures you’ve always got something ready, even when time is tight. My book includes several make-ahead options that can be frozen or kept in the fridge, so there’s never an excuse to skip breakfast or reach for something convenient but less nourishing.

If your mornings are particularly hectic, consider overnight Paleo chia puddings, nut and seed mueslis, or even portable breakfast wraps made with almond flour tortillas. These options take just a few minutes to prepare the night before and will keep you full and focused for hours.

Substituting Your Old Breakfast Favourites

One of the hardest parts of transitioning to Paleo is saying goodbye to old breakfast habits — cereal, toast, yoghurt, croissants. But the good news is, there are Paleo versions of nearly every classic breakfast dish. Love pancakes? Try almond flour or banana-based ones. Missing toast? Sweet potato slices or seeded flatbreads make excellent alternatives. Even your morning brew can be upgraded with options like a bulletproof coffee or a dandelion root latte.

In the recipe book, you’ll find clever swaps for everything from porridge and granola to muffins and smoothies. These recipes don’t just imitate your old favourites — they elevate them with more satisfying flavours and better nutritional value.

Egg-Free and Meat-Free Breakfast Options

It’s a common misconception that Paleo breakfasts always revolve around eggs and bacon. While these are certainly staples for many, not everyone wants meat or eggs first thing in the morning. That’s why I included an entire chapter dedicated to egg-free and meat-free breakfast recipes, all of which still follow the Paleo framework.

These recipes are packed with plant-based proteins, healthy fats, and fibre to help you feel full and energised without relying on animal products. Think coconut and chia breakfast bowls, nut-based porridges, or roasted vegetable stacks with cashew cream. They're a great way to mix things up and ensure variety in your weekly meal planning.

Entertaining and Impressing with Paleo Brunch

Whether you're hosting guests or enjoying a leisurely weekend brunch, Paleo doesn't mean you have to compromise on presentation or flavour. In fact, the recipes in the “fancy breakfast” chapter of the book are designed to wow. Dishes like sweet potato hash with poached eggs, smoked salmon stacks, or grain-free savoury tarts can easily take centre stage at your next brunch gathering.

These options prove that Paleo meals can be both impressive and indulgent — just without the grains, dairy (unless you're primal), or refined sugar. They also make beautiful additions to celebratory breakfasts like birthdays, anniversaries, or Mother’s Day spreads.

Family-Friendly Breakfasts Everyone Will Enjoy

Getting your kids on board with Paleo can be a challenge, particularly in the mornings when they’re rushing out the door. That’s why there’s a special section of kid-approved recipes that are fun, tasty, and easy to eat on the go. Think banana pancakes with almond butter drizzle, mini breakfast burgers, or apple and cinnamon egg muffins. These recipes have been tested with picky eaters in mind and use natural sweetness from fruits and vegetables to keep everyone happy.

Many of the recipes can also be customised with toppings or fillings, allowing your children to be involved in the cooking process — a great way to build healthy habits early on.

Making the Most of Your Paleo Breakfast Book

If you’ve already downloaded the Paleo Breakfast Recipe Book, don’t forget to experiment with combinations. Many recipes pair beautifully together — like savoury muffins with a smoothie, or mushroom saucers served alongside a small fruit and nut bowl. You can mix and match depending on your appetite, activity level, or dietary preferences.

The book is also a great tool if you’re meal planning for a Whole30 or elimination diet, as many of the recipes are compliant and free from common allergens. Just check the notes and suggested modifications included with each recipe to tailor them to your needs.

Join the Paleo Breakfast Movement

Paleo breakfasts are so much more than eggs on a plate. With a little creativity and the right resources, your mornings can become the most exciting — and nourishing — part of your day. Whether you're after something quick and convenient, indulgent and comforting, or light and energising, there’s a Paleo breakfast out there for you.

If you haven’t grabbed the book yet, now’s the time to start transforming your mornings. And don’t forget — big discounts apply if you purchase multiple ebooks in one transaction. Happy cooking!

Paleo Alternatives to Bread

10 Comments

Bread. On a Paleo diet – it is one of the first things to go; whereas on a SAD diet it is a staple. It’s no wonder giving up bread is such a shock to people considering a Paleo Diet.

“I couldn't live without bread”
“I’d never be able to give up bread”
“What do you eat if you don’t have bread?”

I'm sure you've heard these comments before too. Perhaps you found giving up bread to be the hardest thing about transitioning to a Paleo diet – or the one thing that is preventing you from going fully Paleo?

The longer you abstain from bread, the less you’ll miss it. There are some great recipes for Paleo Breads made with coconut flour or almond meal; but instead of trying to substitute one type of flour for another – how about some of these alternatives to your favourite SAD bread meals?!

Paleo Sandwiches

Sandwiches are one of the most popular lunch options, mainly because they are convenient to eat on the go, without getting your hands covered in food! They’re filling and you can prepare them ahead of time. Perhaps you’re missing sandwiches, filled rolls or wraps? Instead – why not try these Paleo sandwich options instead: –

Make wraps with lettuce (try romaine leaves) to hold the filling in place
Use cooked cabbage leaves to encase your filling
For an iodine boast and great flavour make your wraps with Nori (or other seaweed) wraps
You can also make (or buy – but check the ingredients) coconut wraps
Cut a large capsicum (bell pepper) into two flat pieces for a Paleo alternative to sandwich bread
Use a knife and fork! I often order a sandwich in a café – without the bread. Shop bought and restaurant sandwiches often hide very small fillings – but when you order it without the bread you usually get a far more generous portion of the filling!

Paleo Burger Buns

The best think about a burger is the meat – never the bun. So go bun-less, or try these: –

Chop the stalk of two large flat or Portobello mushrooms – the perfect size for a burger bun
Encase your burger patty with the top and bottom of a large tomato

Peanut Butter Sandwiches

White bread filled with peanut butter seems to be a popular pre-Paleo combination. But let’s face it – it’s the peanut butter that’s popular – not the bread in this snack. Clearly peanut butter is out as it’s a legume – so try

Nut butter (almond butter, macadamia nut butter, cashew nut butter – or make your own) and use as a dip for crunchy raw vegetables like carrots, celery, capsicum (bell peppers) and cucumber.
Or slice some eggplant and layer on the nut butter!

Egg and Soldiers

Missing dipping slices of toast into soft boiled eggs? Once you try dipping in roasted vegetables, you’ll wish you’d always done it!

Lasagne & Garlic Bread

Once you've gone to the effort of making a Paleo lasagne, roast some zucchini sticks and garlic as a far more enjoyable accompaniment.

Breadcrumbs

Try using a nut flour as a Paleo alternative

Croutons

If you’re used to a crunch with your soup, try some pork crackling (rinds) as a Primal alternative!

Which bread meals or snacks do you miss the most? I’d love to hear what your favourite bread substitutes are!

Breaking Up with Bread Doesn’t Have to Be Hard

While saying goodbye to bread can feel daunting at first, it doesn’t take long before you realise you don’t need it. In fact, once you start exploring all the delicious, real-food alternatives — from lettuce wraps and roasted veg “soldiers” to mushroom buns and nori rolls — you might not even miss it at all.

Going grain-free is a powerful part of a Paleo lifestyle, especially in Australia where so many of our meals revolve around bread. But with a little creativity and some planning, you can enjoy all your favourite flavours and textures — just without the blood sugar crashes, bloating, or empty carbs.

Do you still crave bread? Or have you found the perfect Paleo workaround? Share your go-to grain-free swaps in the comments — I’d love to hear what’s working in your kitchen.

More Ways to Enjoy a Bread-Free Life on the Paleo Diet

Adjusting to life without bread can feel like a major shift, especially if you’ve grown up with toast at breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and garlic bread with dinner. But once you embrace the possibilities of real food — and move past the idea that every meal needs something doughy on the side — you’ll discover that the Paleo way of eating is far more satisfying.

Let’s break down a few more creative, nutrient-dense, and easy-to-prepare bread alternatives that are perfect for your Aussie Paleo lifestyle.

Swap Toast for Roasted Veg or Eggs

Forget soggy white toast. Instead, slice a sweet potato or eggplant lengthwise, bake or air-fry until golden, and top with smashed avocado, a fried egg, or leftover chicken. These “toasts” hold up surprisingly well and are packed with nutrients.

Savoury Paleo Muffins

Missing the grab-and-go convenience of a muffin or sandwich? You can easily make savoury Paleo muffins using eggs, almond meal, grated veg (like zucchini or carrot), and chopped bacon or herbs. Bake them in batches and store in the fridge or freezer — they’re ideal for lunchboxes or busy mornings.

Zucchini Fritters and Veg Patties

Zucchini fritters or cauliflower patties are fantastic for stacking with sandwich fillings like pulled meat, coleslaw, or tomato and avocado. Use them as mini burger buns or toast substitutes for a fun twist.

Wrap with Collard Greens or Silverbeet

These tougher leafy greens hold up better than lettuce and can be quickly blanched for flexibility. Try wrapping up leftover mince, grilled chicken, or tuna salad — they’re perfect for wraps without the wrap.

Paleo Pancakes for Sweet Cravings

If it’s sweet breakfasts you miss, coconut flour or banana pancakes (made with eggs, coconut flour or almond meal, and a little cinnamon) can fill the gap nicely. Serve with nut butter and a few seasonal berries for a decadent treat.

Stuffed Capsicums or Mushrooms

If you’re looking for a hearty meal without the grains, roast a large capsicum and fill it with minced meat, herbs, and vegetables — it’s basically a sandwich you eat with a knife and fork. Portobello mushrooms also work beautifully when topped with eggs, pulled pork or guacamole.

Paleo Breads (When You Want a True Substitute)

While the goal is often to let go of bread altogether, there are days when only a slice will do. In those moments, you can make your own Paleo bread using almond flour, eggs, and coconut oil. Keep a loaf in the freezer and toast a slice as needed. It’s especially good for open-faced toppings like smoked salmon or pâté.

Paleo Living Without Bread Is Easier Than You Think

Living without bread doesn’t mean giving up variety or satisfaction. In fact, many people find their meals become more colourful, nutrient-dense, and energising once they stop relying on grains to fill up.

If you're new to the Paleo diet, try experimenting with one or two new alternatives each week. Eventually, you’ll discover what fits your lifestyle — whether it’s lettuce wraps for lunch, leftover roast for breakfast, or a simple veggie mash in place of toast.

What have you found works best for you? Do you still crave bread, or have you found Paleo alternatives that truly satisfy? Let’s swap ideas and help each other out — share your favourites in the comments below!

Breakfast for a prime minister paleo diet healthy-min

Breakfast Fit for a Prime Minister?

1 Comment

I was interested to see photos of a typical Breakfast for British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Lurpak butter ( Ingredients: Organic butter (69%), organic rapeseed oil (25%), lactic culture, salt (0.9%))
Shredded Wheat Cereal (judging by the rest of the meal, I bet the milk isn't whole fat)
Toast with Jam
Low-fat yoghurt
Fruit

That's certainly a very carb-heavy Breakfast, without much fat or protein in sight. They must need regular carbohydrate based snacks for when their blood sugar levels crash shortly after eating.

I'd have loved to see them tucking into a proper cooked Breakfast! Perhaps Julia Gillard starts the days with bacon and eggs, cooked in coconut oil?

What Does a Leader’s Breakfast Say About the Nation?

While it might sound like a small thing, what our leaders eat for breakfast actually paints an interesting picture. The foods they choose reflect the prevailing attitudes of the time – and influence millions of people watching from around the world. So when the British PM is snapped starting the day with a beige buffet of low-fat yoghurt, cereal and toast, what message does that send?

It seems that even at the highest levels, we're still stuck in a nutritional time warp – one where fat is feared, cereal is king, and protein barely gets a look-in before midday.

But what if the next Prime Minister chose a breakfast of pasture-raised eggs, grilled tomatoes, avocado, and a few rashers of free-range bacon cooked in ghee or coconut oil? What if world leaders normalised nutrient-dense, protein-rich, whole food breakfasts?

That shift could be revolutionary.

The Low-Fat Legacy That Won’t Die

The obsession with low-fat everything – yoghurt, milk, butter alternatives – has lingered since the 1970s, despite mounting evidence that it was based on shaky science. Governments around the world promoted it with the best of intentions, hoping it would reduce heart disease. Instead, we’ve seen skyrocketing rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and inflammatory conditions. Replacing fat with sugar and ultra-processed grains didn’t make us healthier – it just made us hungrier.

That Cameron breakfast is a prime example of this outdated advice in action. Where’s the fat-soluble nutrition? The stable energy from protein and healthy fats? The satiety?

A Better Breakfast (Even for Politicians)

If we were designing a breakfast that fuels long meetings, decisive leadership, and mental clarity, it wouldn’t be Shredded Wheat and low-fat fruit yoghurt. It might look something like this:

3 eggs (soft-boiled or scrambled) from pasture-raised hens
1/2 avocado with lemon and sea salt
Sautéed mushrooms and spinach in olive oil or ghee
A rasher or two of bacon from heritage-breed pigs
Herbal tea or black coffee, maybe with MCT oil or collagen peptides

This breakfast provides a solid 25 – 30g of protein, healthy fats, fibre, and micronutrients. It keeps blood sugar stable and provides long-lasting energy without a crash at 10:30am.

Breakfast Around the World: The Paleo Version

Curious how other countries could rethink their national breakfasts through a Paleo lens? Let’s look at a few examples:

Australia

Instead of Vegemite on toast or Weet-Bix, a Paleo Aussie breakfast might include:

Kangaroo sausage or lamb chops
Roasted sweet potato cubes
Smashed avocado with lemon
A side of fermented veggies

Japan

Rather than miso soup and rice:

Bone broth with wilted Asian greens and shredded chicken
Soft-boiled eggs
Pickled vegetables and seaweed salad

France

Ditch the croissant and café au lait for:

Omelette with herbs and mushrooms
Duck fat-fried potatoes
Black coffee with cinnamon

Reimagining these breakfasts isn’t about restriction – it’s about fuelling the body for the day ahead in a way that’s biologically appropriate and deeply satisfying.

Why Protein & Fat Matter First Thing in the Morning

Eating protein-rich, fat-dense meals in the morning has several advantages:

Blood Sugar Stability: Without the spike-and-crash of refined carbs, your energy stays consistent through to lunch.
Satiety: Protein and fat help you feel full longer – meaning less temptation to snack mid-morning.
Hormonal Support: Protein supports neurotransmitter function (especially dopamine and serotonin), while fat is essential for hormone production.
Cognitive Focus: A steady fuel supply helps with attention, decision-making, and mood regulation.

If you’ve ever felt foggy or hangry after a bowl of cereal, now you know why.

How to Politely Decline the Cereal

If you’re trying to encourage your household, friends, or workplace to rethink breakfast, you don’t need to start with lectures. Try these gentle nudges:

“That looks tasty – but have you ever tried eggs and avo for breakfast? I feel full for hours when I do.”
“I’m testing a new breakfast to see if it helps me concentrate better during the day.”
“It’s wild how long cereal has been marketed as healthy. Have you seen the ingredients list lately?”

Sometimes, a quiet example is the most powerful way to lead change.

Leading by Example (Even if You’re Not Prime Minister)

You don’t need to be the leader of a nation to influence those around you. Your family, co-workers, and online community are watching. When they see you consistently choosing real food in the mornings – and noticing your energy, skin, mood, and performance improve – they’ll start to wonder what you’re doing differently.

Why not make your next breakfast something worth copying?

Breakfast & the Bigger Picture

Breakfast isn’t just about what’s on the plate. It sets the tone for the day, physically and mentally. A nourishing breakfast says:

“I prioritise my wellbeing.”
“I prepare in advance.”
“I make choices based on what works for my body.”

Compare that to a rushed piece of toast or sugary yoghurt scoffed in the car. That sets a completely different tone.

If our leaders – and let’s face it, we all lead someone – want to show up fully in their day, a proper breakfast is a powerful place to start.

Your Turn

What do you think of David Cameron’s breakfast? What’s the most nutrient-dense way you’ve started your day recently? Have you convinced anyone in your life to ditch cereal for bacon and eggs?

Let me know in the comments – and maybe one day, we’ll see a future Prime Minister go viral for making a slow-cooked liver and sweet potato hash before Parliament.

Paleo Breakfast Ideas

19 Comments

Breakfast seems to be the meal people struggle with when moving over to a Paleo diet.

The word breakfast may be synonymous with cereal, toast, pancakes and many other refined carbs – but it really doesn't have to be. Breakfast is simply the first meal of the day the “break” the “fast” you've carried out since your last meal the previous day.

I'm thrilled to announce I've just finished my first recipe book; the Paleo Breakfast Recipe book, with over 100 pages of beautifully photographed step-by-step recipes – check it out and let me know what you think! I hope you love it as much as I do.

A Paleo Breakfast?

I think the first step is to remove the association of breakfast with a specific type of meal. Breakfast does not equal cereal, swimming in skim milk. Think of breakfast on its nutritional merits; that is, base your first meal of the day around a good protein source and marry this with a good fat source and some vegetables. You may initially find the idea of having meat for breakfast odd, but it’s worth persevering with this, as good quality meat can be a great way to start the day.

If you don’t have much time in the mornings you need to be organised and prepare as much as you can the night before. I find it helps to plan all of my meals for the whole week in advance, at the weekend. I then buy the ingredients, so I have no excuses and everything I need on hand.A lot of people skip breakfast, which might be the right thing to do. If however your reason for skipping breakfast is that you can’t get out of bed in time to make breakfast – this indicates to me that you need breakfast!

Eggs For Breakfast?

Eggs are an obvious breakfast choice. They are quick, nutritious and very versatile. I often have bacon & eggs, scrambled eggs with avocado or an omelette, with whichever vegetables I have in the fridge. I always cook in coconut oil. Another favourite is making up a batch of egg muffins at the weekend. I make these up as I would an omelette, but pour them into muffin cases and cook in the oven. These last for a few days in the fridge and are perfect for busy days when there isn't enough time to make something from scratch.

I’ll also often cook extra chicken at the weekend which is great to base a breakfast around and doesn't need to be reheated, I think it’s great cold. Chicken and avocado is a great combination.

Leftovers are another great breakfast, once you've got used to the idea of having “non traditional” breakfasts. You can’t get much quicker and easier than that!

Occasionally at weekends I’ll make Paleo pancakes (using coconut or almond meal). This is great served with a berry sauce, made with fresh berries, blended in coconut milk. Noatmeal is another infrequent Paleo indulgence which is a great way to start the day.

Whilst strictly, I guess it is Paleo, I never have just fruit for breakfast. I always base my meal around protein and include fat. To have fruit (carbohydrate) as a meal on its own would be depriving myself of essential fats and proteins, would raise my blood sugar level and I’d very quickly be hungry.

What are your favourite Paleo breakfasts? I’d love to hear, in the comments below.

More Inspiring Paleo Breakfast Ideas to Keep You Full, Energised, and On Track

One of the biggest benefits of switching to a Paleo lifestyle is how it transforms your relationship with food — especially in the morning. Instead of relying on carb-heavy, sugar-laden breakfasts that leave you tired and hungry by 10am, a well-balanced Paleo breakfast sets the tone for a productive, energised day.

If you’re in need of fresh inspiration, here are some more creative Paleo breakfast ideas to add variety, nutrition and flavour to your mornings:

1. Sweet Potato & Sausage Hash

Grate or dice sweet potato and fry it up with chopped onion, garlic, and your favourite preservative-free sausages (or ground pork seasoned with herbs). Add a handful of spinach or kale at the end and top with a poached egg for extra protein and creaminess.

2. Zucchini & Carrot Fritters

Grated zucchini and carrot make a fantastic savoury base. Add almond meal, eggs, and herbs like dill or parsley, then fry in coconut oil until golden. These fritters store well and can be reheated or eaten cold — ideal for busy mornings.

3. Smoked Salmon & Avocado Boats

Half an avocado and fill the hollow with smoked salmon, a sprinkle of capers, lemon juice, and fresh herbs. It’s elegant, nourishing, and completely no-cook.

4. Mini Paleo Breakfast Bowls

Combine roasted pumpkin cubes, wilted spinach, a handful of sautéed mushrooms, and shredded leftover roast lamb or beef. Top with a dollop of homemade Paleo mayo or tahini dressing and a squeeze of lemon.

5. Beef & Veggie Breakfast Meatballs

Make a batch of meatballs with beef mince, grated zucchini, herbs, and egg, then bake and store them in the fridge. Two or three of these make a satisfying protein-rich breakfast, especially when paired with a few cherry tomatoes and a boiled egg.

6. Egg-Free Paleo Breakfasts

If you’re avoiding eggs or just want a break, try a warm breakfast bowl with sautéed greens, leftover roast chicken or pulled pork, avocado, and sauerkraut or fermented veggies for a tangy gut-health boost.

Or go sweet with a chia pudding made from coconut milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and a few berries — prepared the night before so it’s ready to grab and go.

7. Paleo Smoothies (the right way)

Paleo-friendly smoothies can work well for breakfast — as long as they’re balanced. Start with a base of coconut milk or almond milk, add protein (like collagen peptides or leftover cooked egg), a healthy fat (avocado or nut butter), and a low-sugar fruit (berries or green apple). Throw in spinach or kale for an extra nutritional punch.

8. Paleo Breakfast Stir-Fry

Who says stir-fry is just for dinner? Toss together sliced beef, veggies like bok choy, capsicum and mushroom, and stir-fry in coconut aminos and ginger. Serve hot with a side of avocado.

Planning Ahead for Breakfast Success

Success with Paleo breakfasts is all about preparation. Spend a little time on Sunday cooking up breakfast-friendly foods like:

Batches of roast veg (sweet potato, pumpkin, carrots)
Pre-chopped greens and herbs
Boiled eggs
Grilled chicken thighs
Homemade Paleo sauces (mayo, tahini, guacamole)
Pre-mixed spice blends for eggs or meat

Having these components ready in the fridge makes it easy to mix and match your way to a satisfying breakfast in under 10 minutes — even on a weekday.

Final Thoughts: Break the Breakfast Mould

Paleo breakfast doesn’t need to be boring or repetitive — and it certainly doesn’t have to resemble the standard Western idea of “breakfast food.” Whether you’re tucking into leftover lamb, pan-fried greens, egg muffins, or sweet potato hash, a good Paleo breakfast should keep you full, energised, and satisfied for hours.

Have you tried any of these ideas? What’s your go-to Paleo breakfast when you’re in a hurry — or when you have time to enjoy a lazy weekend morning? Share your favourite ideas in the comments below, and let’s keep building the ultimate Paleo breakfast list together.
