Wheat free, sugar free breakfasts

I thought I would start with breakfast.  Giving up wheat and sugar can make breakfast quite a challenge.

Here are some things I have

Porridge, made with milk (I use soya milk) a twist of salt and a spoonful of cream
Sometimes I add berries to the above
A form of Bircher muesli, soak oats in milk overnight, or at least for a "while", when ready to eat add berries (I use frozen so give them time to defrost), chopped nuts, maybe chopped apple and a spoonful of cream
Continental  - ham, cheese, melon, tomatoes
Banana or melon chopped up with a couple of spoonfuls of full fat Greek yogurt with some chopped mixed nuts and seeds on top and mayb some dried blueberries or raisins
Bacon and egg
Omelette

Today, however I really fancied something different.  I had an egg in my fridge which had cracked so needed using up, and having got some inspiration from another blog I did the following

Finely chopped half an onion, some pepper and half a courgette, which I fried in a tsp of coconut oil. Then I added a handful of spinach.  Once that was almost ready I added the egg from the freezer and another egg (whose yolk had not broken)


Once the eggs were cooked, I piled them onto a plate and laid the eggs on top.  Absolutely scrummy



It's nice to mix it up once in a while.  This kept me going till lunchtime.  If I had had some bacon in, then I might have added a rasher but it was perfectly fine without.
