Why Keto Breakfasts Matter
Before we get to the recipes, let’s talk about why breakfast is such a big deal on keto. When you skip the usual toast and cereal, you’re telling your body to burn fat instead of sugar. A solid keto breakfast sets the tone for stable blood sugar and fewer mid-morning crashes. Plus, who doesn’t love starting the day with bacon or creamy avocado? These recipes are all about keeping it simple, tasty, and keto-approved.
