Additionally, this dish can be prepared in just 10 minutes and has only 272 calories. This modified version of the traditional English breakfast is not only low in carbohydrates and high in protein, but it’s also a perfect way to kickstart your busy day. It will provide you with long-lasting satiety, helping you feel full for hours.
Eggs for breakfast
Eggs are great for a weight loss diet, especially if you eat them for breakfast. They are rich in protein and low in calories, but the calorie level also depends on how you cook them. You’ll get a delicious low-carb English breakfast when you accompany eggs with flourless 90-SEC BREAD SIMPLE AND TOASTABLE.
MY TIP: Adding extra egg whites to your egg is another way to increase protein intake. To do this, use only egg white from a whole egg or egg whites liquid.
