low carb breakfast suggestions?

Hello all, I am only new here so look forward to some support and hints along the way. I am doing the Slim Forever plan and wonder what I can have for breakfast without having to cook something. I have always had cereal and a banana but that has to stop and I cannot stomach a hot breakfast. Is there a protein shake of some kind or any other suggestions??
Thanks, Jean

I'm not familiar with your plan, but you might check the recipe section (see the orange tabs above). I think I've seen a protein shake recipe somewhere.

Hi Mishimc,

Welcome to another Aussie.

It's difficult to make any meal suggestions without knowing anything about your plan.

But I would suggest you have a look at our Breakfast Ideas subforum. I'm sure you'll find some ideas there.

And if you haven't already seen our Oz/NZ section, do have a look there for local help.

Cheers, matey.

Thank you Katwoman and an fellow Aussie - Rosebud [and a Queenslander at that LOL] for the welcome to here. Lots of reading to do - I am yet to find a protein shake recipe but will keep looking. Otherwise I guess I could make up a quiche variation and just warm that up a little for breakfast, Jean

I sometimes make a sort of muesli from sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flaked almonds, almond flour and a few oats and a little bran. It's crunchy and goes down well with some sweetener and cream on it.
