Keto High Protein Breakfast Tostadas

Make a low-carb, high protein Keto recipe for breakfast when you plan to fast intermittently or have a big workout planned! If you exercise regularly on the Keto diet, you may want to include more protein in your macros - depending on your personal fitness goals! These tostadas are made by baking circles of parmesan cheese into crunchy bases. Did you know parmesan cheese has more protein than fat per ounce? Then, the tostadas are loaded with seasoned scrambled eggs, avocado, and crispy bacon. You can add more toppings to your breakfast or enjoy it as is. This is not a good recipe for meal prepping - make your tostadas fresh in the morning or after your workout.

Why would I want a high protein breakfast?

The standard Keto diet calls for about 25% of your macros to be protein daily. Some users like a low carb high protein Keto recipe if they are practicing intermittent fasting. Instead of eating three meals a day, a person may only eat two and need more protein in a single meal. Alternatively, you may require higher protein meals for specific health conditions.

Tostada toppings

Other toppings you may like to add to your tostada include low-carb salsa or hot sauce. You can add cilantro or lime juice to the tostadas too. For more fat, how about some sour cream? Mashing your avocado into guacamole and adding olive oil can help increase your fat macros too.

Make it vegetarian

To start, it’s really easy to make this meal vegetarian: just remove the bacon! You can make up for the protein by adding fried tofu to your tostada. If that’s not your concern, try dicing Keto vegetables and adding them to your scrambled eggs. Some Keto vegetables include zucchini, mushroom, spinach, bok choy, or green bell peppers.
