Jump on the meal prep train and save yourself some time in the morning with these delicious meal prep breakfast bowls packed with boiled eggs and vegetables! Ready in under 30 minutes, you’ll have a healthy, high-protein, low-carb, grab-and-go breakfast every morning of the week.
One of the top recommendations in all of my nutrition programs, and one that I give to all of my clients, is to eat a savory breakfast. It may seem like such a small and insignificant change, but opting for a savory breakfast over a sweet breakfast is a great way to help balance your blood sugar and keep your sugar cravings at bay. The first meal of the day really sets the tone for our blood sugar for the rest of the day, so choosing something that is packed with protein and low in sugar is essential to keeping our hunger signals under control. Although whipping up a big hearty breakfast every morning would be ideal, not everyone has the time for that on weekday mornings, so that is where meal prep comes in! Simple to prepare, and packed with protein, healthy fats, and plenty of veggies, these meal prep breakfast bowls are the perfect way to start a busy day.

Did you eat the vegetables cold or did you warm them up?
Stephanie Kay says
You can eat them cold or reheat them in the microwave for a minute or so, either works!
