Most of us can rarely find time on a weekday morning to cook an elaborate breakfast spread for the family, which is why we’ve created this 5 minute Keto Diet Breakfast Bowl! It’s high in healthy fats, low in carbs, and will keep satisfied all throughout the busy day. But, the best part is how simple and quick it is to make. No matter your morning routines or how many kids you have to get ready, everyone will have some time for this quick and delicious breakfast bowl!
The Best Keto Foods To Add Into Your Bowl
We’ve given you the recipe for our favorite breakfast bowl makings, but that doesn’t mean you can’t go off on your own and get a little wild. I would personally start by changing up the meat! I’m a huge fan breakfast sausage so I would find a high fat to protein ratio sausage to add to my bowl. I may also swap in and out spinach depending on the day and I would most definitely add in a cheese like goat or sharp cheddar! There is no one best way to do it so have fun with your favorite keto foods.
Our Favorite Low Carb Breakfast Foods!
Over the past several months we’ve converted into breakfast people. We no longer push our eating window off until 1pm because it feels more natural and satisfying to eat early on. Naturally, this means we’ve become huge breakfast lovers so coming up with some quick recipes and some extravagant weekend recipes was a must. For a quick weekday breakfast we love to make this bowl or our overnight oats so all the prep is done even before waking up. For the weekend when we have more time to dedicate we love to make our low carb breakfast casserole, macro pancakes or French omelet! The jury still may be out on whether or not breakfast is the “most important” meal of the day, but either way we still like to whip up a delicious meal to get our bodies and macros going on the right foot!
Keto Diet Breakfast Bowl
What makes a keto breakfast bowl one of our favorite meals? Well, for one it’s single serve and really easy to prepare so if only one of us is eating there is no hassle of having leftovers or needing to clean the entire kitchen. It’s also customizable to whatever you have in the fridge or are craving. Finally, although it may not look like the biggest serving in the world, it’s both high in fat and protein which means this keto diet breakfast bowl will keep you full until you can find some more time to eat!

One of the easiest recipes of all and so nutritious! BUT I did not see macros listed for the 3 cups of greens. I need to keep track of my fiber! Thanks so much.
The collards bacon and eggs is beautiful and I can’t wait to make it when I wake up! Thank you so much for the brilliant and easy recipe. Please tell me what that huge jar of ghee is called. I looked under your products and ingredients link but didn’t see it. I’ve never seen such a massive jar and being allergic to butter, coconut oil olive Andy avocado oils, I could certainly use a jar that size!
Thank you
.
Why is the bacon grease not counted in the macros?
It is counted in the macros.
Love this it’s so good, quick and easy. I love you and Matthew and all your tips and ideas.
Instead of greens and bacon could I use spinach and sausage?
Yes!
What is a substitute for ghee?
Made it with leftover ham, bacon fat, red and green cabbage. Delicious! I’m going to try it with ground beef and kale next-or collard greens if I feel adventurous.
Love this! I’ve made it several times now. One night it was with Salmon. Thanks!
Even as a southern girl, I wouldn’t have thought of collards for breakfast but this dish is delicious and perfectly balanced. Great job, guys. It will definitely be in my rotation for a meal any time of day.
Yay!! It’s definitely our favorite go-to since it’s so simple and delicious. Happy you enjoy it!
I tried the breakfast option with kale and it was amazing. Ever since I saw the picture I was drawn to it. I made some for my mom too and she was quite amazed lol. Keep it up guys.

I’ve found it in my local grocery store in the cooking oil section. Even my local Walmart sells it.
THIS LOOKS GREAT but I don” eat pork! I’ll try it without pork.
I can’t eat pork either, but duck bacon is a pricier but worth it substitute!
Looks fantastic, and wonder if spinach could work as well.
