Inside: Some of my favorite no egg lectin free breakfast ideas.
When I first started the Plant Paradox diet, it was a bit of struggle to find lectin free recipes to make. And for some reason, my biggest struggle with lectin free recipes was finding options for a lectin free, plant paradox approved breakfast. I found myself eating a TON of eggs.
And it’s not that I have anything against fresh eggs. In fact, I joined a local farm share with some friends where we all take turns picking up dozens of delicious, pastured eggs. I’m kind of crazy about eggs, to be honest. So it probably seems a bit weird that I’m writing about my favorite NO egg lectin free breakfast meals…
But I’ve found that because eggs are so delicious and quick to whip up into a meal, that sometimes I just eat too many of them. Fried eggs in the morning, hard-boiled eggs in my lunch salad, and a quick omelet for dinner before I run off to drive the little one to a dance class = too many eggs. Ever feel like that? If so – this list of no egg lectin free breakfast ideas is for you!

5 No Egg Lectin Free Breakfast Ideas
- Kale and Sweet Potato Hash – This recipe is for our super flavorful, and easy sweet potato hash. Our recipe suggest serving it over with a runny egg, but it’s SO good and filling on its own. You won’t miss the eggs!
- Paleo Vegan Pancakes – This is a delicious recipe from the Real Food Dietitians. When I make this recipe, I leave out the maple syrup and top with this delicious syrup instead.
- Sweet Potato Toast – This genius trick from the The Six o’Clock Scramble is a fun twist on that breakfast classic – toast! I love topping this with some cream cheese, smoked salmon and capers, or sautéed greens and creamy avocado.
- Sweet Potato Aloo Gobi from Dinner with Julie, scooped up with these easy 3 ingredient Cassava Flour tortillas from LectinFree Mama. I’m showing my roots here, but growing up in an Indian family – this classic “Bengali-style” breakfast is something I often long for. If you are following the Plant Paradox diet, then make sure you use peeled and de-seeded tomatoes in the sweet potato recipe.
- Avocado Green Smoothie from Paleo Flourish is another breakfast standby in our house. If we make it for our little one, sometimes we like to add in a small handful of fresh mint and a bit of our favorite sweetener. She calls it her breakfast mint shake!
I hope you found some inspiration of your own with these no egg lectin free breakfast ideas. What are some of your breakfast favorites?
pin me!
I had not previously heard of lectin. But I’m certain I would enjoy each of the recipes you’ve linked to in your post. Thx!
I tried to surf the good and bad of lectins. And I found some. Why do you want to reduce lectins in your diet?
I have arthritis and joint pain and I’ve been learning about the immune response to lectins. I was curious to see if it would actually work for me, and I found I was able to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling by eating a lower lectin diet. It’s also done wonder for my weight/blood work!
There are several resources in case you want to learn more – both the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) or a book like Plant Paradox has some good information.
What did you eat for breakfast that was quick??
Honestly, I meal prep batches of things to reheat quickly for breakfast. The sweet potato hash, sweet potato toast, etc are all great things to whip up on a Sunday afternoon so you have them for fast lectin free breakfasts throughout the week!
Hello please look up the research done by Dr. Steven R Gundry.
I LOVE eggs to more with age lol. But not abusing..but you make an excellent point of limiting if too much. Really curious about the Sweet Potato Toast.
Thanks for giving me some new ideas. I’m on Keto and I’ve been craving biscuits! That is going to the first one I make!
The biscuits have become a family favorite! Really good topped with some avocado, an egg and some crispy bacon!
I know you are a traveler – would love to hear about your keto experience on the road!
Yum! Something I’m not familiar with at all. The avocado green smoothie…nom!
Egg intolerant. Thank you gor recipes
The Aloo Gobi looks delicious but is made with tomatos , a very high in lectin, do you have a substitute ingredient you can suggest?
This is a nice post. I have been consuming egg for breakfast for the variety it’s either scrambled, sunny side up or poached. I’m now looking for something different, perhaps I should try this https://gundrymd.com/plant-paradox-cleanse/, has anyone tried this one? Thank you for sharing.
An increasing number of people (myself included) find themselves to be lectin intolerant. To find lectin-free recipes also without eggs is very difficult indeed. I have a very definite intolerance of even cooked egg white and am allergic to raw egg white. We still need protein and there is a limit to the amount of chicken and fish anyone can eat! (Sorry, lectins in case you hadn’t looked it up, are plant proteins. Some are poisonous to all – unsoaked red kidney beans for example). I too would recommend “The Plant Paradox” by Dr. Stephen Gundry.
Thank you!
