There’s always a bit of hesitation from some participants during my free 30-Day PCOS Diet Challenge when they have a look at the breakfast meal plan. While I do include some more ”typical” breakfast recipe options, I try to focus on teaching women to learn to enjoy meat and veg in the mornings. I was once one of those people that struggled to wrap my head around that idea too, believe it or not!
I really want to encourage you to try eating more meaty breakfasts as part of your regular routine, because, in my experience, this is one of the best dietary changes to make for improving blood glucose regulation. This is essential for weight loss and improving hormone regulation. You can find even more PCOS recipes for weight loss here.
Here’s everything you’ll need to make this PCOS-friendly Breakfast Burrito Bowl:
- Chicken sausage
- Eggs
- Coconut oil
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Onion powder
- Garlic powder
- Chili powder
- Cauliflower
- Jalapeño
- Red bell peppers
- Onions
- Fresh cilantro/coriander
- Lime juice
- Avocado
This is the kind of meal that totally contradicts the idea that eating healthy comes at the cost of deliciousness. I’m pretty sure that once you try this, you’ll want it for lunch and dinner too.
