How to make a multigrain, avocado, and turkey breast sandwich in under 10min?

Protein packed breakfast without any scrambled eggs or fried eggs

It is essential to know how to make a nutritious & delicious breakfast that does not always require eggs! I decided to create this multigrain, avocado, and turkey breast sandwich with a side of mozzarella and tomato salad that will give you all the nutrients you need to kickstart your morning! 

Ingredients

  • Multigrain Toast

Multigrain Toast - Whole Wheat Bread for a eggless breakfast

Some of the health benefits of eating grains are that they're a good source of fiber, other nutrients that play a role in heart health, blood sugar control, and digestion. Whole grains can also help with weight management because they tend to be high in fiber and keep you feeling full longer.

  • Avocado

Avocado - healthy fat option for morning meal and avocado toast

Eating avocados has many health benefits! They are a great source of healthy fats, essential for heart health, brain function, and hormone production. They're also a good source of fiber, which can help with weight management and digestion.

  • Himalayan Pink Salt

Himalayan Pink Salt - 1/3 tea spoon for breakfast

Himalayan pink salt is a much better option than the highly processed table salt. It is rich in minerals, which can help with hydration, electrolyte balance, and blood pressure regulation. It also has a lower sodium content than table salt, so it is a better option for people trying to reduce their sodium intake.

  • Lemon

Lemon - use with any breakfast ideas you might have to improve taste

Lemon is full of vitamin C, which helps boost the immune system, promote healthy skin and provide protection against the harmful effects of free radicals. Lemon is also a good source of fiber, which can help with weight management and digestion.

  • Smoked Turkey Breast

Smoked Turkey Breast - Great Source of Protein to replace Egg.

Turkey breast will be your primary source of protein in this breakfast. Per 100 grams of smoked turkey breast, you will get around 26 grams of protein. Turkey is also a good source of selenium, an important mineral for immune system function, thyroid health, and fertility.

  • Mozzarella

Mozzarella - Protein Rich Dairy Option instead of hard boiled eggs

Mozzarella is another good source of protein. 50grams of mozzarella will have about 12 grams of protein (hyperlink protein to our all you need to know about protein blog). Mozzarella is also a good source of calcium, which is vital for bone health and blood pressure regulation.

  • Tomato

Tomato - great add on for breakfast sandwiches and meal prep

Tomatoes are high in vitamins C & K, as well as lycopene. Lycopene is an important antioxidant that can help protect against the harmful effects of free radicals. Tomatoes are also a good source of fiber, which can help with weight management and digestion.

  • Olive oil 

Olive Oil - great source of healthy fats for meal prep with protein rich foods

Olive oil is an excellent source of healthy fats. It is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease. Olive oil is also a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect against the harmful effects of free radicals. This is one of the reasons why health experts highly recommend the Mediterranean diet.

5 foods rich in protein that you can use to make eggless, high-protein breakfast recipes! 

Food rich in protein like plain greek yogurt, overnight oats, smoked salmon and other.

Tofu

Tofu is a great vegan option that is rich in protein. Just 100 grams of tofu will have around 12 grams of protein. Tofu is also a good source of calcium, iron, and magnesium.

Smoked salmon

Smoked salmon is an amazing source of healthy fats and protein. Just 100 grams will give you around 20 grams of protein and 11 grams of healthy fats.

Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt is a great source of calcium and protein. Only 100 grams of Greek yogurt will have around 12 grams of protein. Greek yogurt is also high in probiotics, important for gut health.

Tuna

If you are adamant about hitting your protein goal for breakfast, tuna is a great option. Just 100 grams of tuna will give you around 28 grams of protein. Tuna is also a good source of omega-three fatty acids, important for heart health.

Protein powder

I had to include protein powder on this list as it can be a lifesaver when you are in a rush but don't want to skip your protein intake for the day. Add a scoop of protein powder to your breakfast smoothie or oatmeal, and you will instantly up the protein content of your meal.

As you can see, there are plenty of high-protein options that don't include eggs, so there are no more excuses for not getting the right amount of protein your body needs to function optimally!

Answers to essential questions about nutrition! 

How much protein should you eat for breakfast? 

The answer to this can be very complex; however, I will assume that you are someone who is just starting their fitness journey and does not want to get overwhelmed with information, so I will give a simple 4 step protocol to follow:

Step 1

Know what is the minimum amount of protein you should consume!

  • Female 20-30gm of protein

  • Male 30-40gm of protein

Sample from the breakfast above:

Female - 1 whole-grain toast + 50gm Turkey breast + 50gm Mozzarella

Male - 1-2 whole-grain toast + 100gm Turkey breast + 50gm Mozzarella

Step 2

Ensure you have some healthy fats in your breakfast

  • Avocado

  • Olive Oil

  • Coconut Oil

  • Nuts

  • Diary

Step 3

Know approximately how many calories are allocated for breakfast. You can use an app like MyFitnessPal to calculate your daily calorie intake based on your goal and then determine how much you should eat for breakfast, or you can opt for some of our nutrition services.

Step 4

Once you have hit your protein goal, add some fat source, then fill up the rest of the allocated calories with carbs. I suggest going with complex carbs, high in fiber like some fruits, multigrain bread, or oats.

4 Step guide to know how to eat for breakfast!

Why do I recommend protein and fats as the base for your breakfast?

I find that many people tend to be a bit insulin resistant which means that they have a hard time processing carbs and sugars in the morning. Having a high-protein breakfast with healthy fats helps regulate blood sugar levels and gives you more energy and fullness throughout the day!

What are some benefits of eating breakfast?

There are many benefits of eating breakfast; however, I will list my top three:

Eating breakfast helps regulate blood sugar levels and gives you more energy and fullness throughout the day.

Breakfast provides your body with the nutrients it needs to function correctly.

Eating breakfast has been linked with a lower risk of obesity, heart disease, and type II diabetes.
