Whether it’s your first whole30 or fifth whole30, you’ve probably thought: well if there is no gluten, grains, soy, dairy, or sugar… what CAN I eat for breakfast?! That’s why I rounded up these Whole30 Breakfast Recipes for you!
Breakfast can be tricky when doing a Whole30. You can easily burn out on basic scrambled eggs, veggies, and avocado. And if you’re someone like me who really doesn’t even love breakfasts… then you’re in trouble!
I often eat leftover dinners or lunches for my breakfasts (yes, that means I enjoy Paleo Turkey Chili and Healthy Crockpot Pulled Pork at 8 AM sometimes, judge me.) but these healthy whole30 breakfast recipes are great if that’s not your style.
Whole30 Breakfast Casserole Recipes:
Breakfast casseroles are our favorite easy breakfast! You can use up whatever veggies/protein you have laying around in the fridge, mix them with eggs and they’re transformed into a new meal!
Potato Crust Quiche is our favorite Whole30 breakfast. It has a crispy potato ‘crust’ made from shredded potatoes or hash browns and it’s you can use ANY veggies in it!
Sausage Egg Bake is one of our favorites – all you need to make it is cooked sausage, some greens and some veggies!

Ham and Broccoli Breakfast Casserole is a great way to use up any leftover ham from Easter, Christmas, or any other holiday. With simple ingredients, it cooks up in the oven for an easy and delicious gluten free breakfast.
Whole30 Frittatas
Frittatas are similar to casseroles, but often are started on the stove top and finished in the oven. Regardless of how they’re cooked – they’re delicious!
Paleo Frittata is great because you can make it in your instant pot or the oven!

Buffalo Chicken Frittata … you can’t go wrong with buffalo chicken for breakfast!

Egg & Potato Breakfast Muffins are great for breakfast on the go!
Bacon Frittata Breakfast Muffins are so yummy. The bacon helps keep them moist and tasty!
Spring Frittata with Avocado is the perfect way to use up spring produce!

Prosciutto Plantain Egg Cups with Chimicurri are SO good. The prosciutto gets nice and crispy in the oven and the combo of the egg + plantain is delish!
Butternut Squash Egg Cups are a great way to use up butternut squash. Typically I make soup with butternut squash, but I love using squash in breakfast!
Instant Pot Egg Bites are great for a make ahead breakfast!

Since grains, gluten, dairy, soy, and sugar are off limits, that means no:
- toast
- pancakes
- oatmeal
- muffins
- breads
Don’t worry though, there are PLENTY of options below. I try to focus on the things we can have when doing a whole30 rather than all the things we can’t have!
Easy Whole30 Breakfast Ideas:
If you need a quick breakfast idea, you can mix and match any of the following portions for a balanced breakfast:
- Protein: Hard Boiled Eggs, Sausage, or any of the frittata’s/casseroles mentioned above

Whole30 Breakfast: Healthy Quiche
Ingredients
- 3 cups grated potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 7 eggs
- ½ cup almond milk
- ¼ cup onion chopped
- 1 cup spinach chopped
- 1/2 cup bell peppers chopped
- ¼ cup grape tomatoes quartered
- ¼ cup mushrooms chopped
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450. Grease a glass pie plate by spraying with olive or coconut oil.
- Grate potatoes. Squeeze as much liquid out of potatoes with a paper towel or dish towel. In a bowl, toss grated potatoes with 1 tablespoon flaxseed cooking oil.
- Press the potatoes into the pie plate to form a crust. Bake the crust in the oven for 20 minutes or until edges start to brown.
- While crust is baking, whisk together eggs + almond milk. Chop vegetables + stir into egg mixture with seasonings.
- Once crust has cooked, pour egg/veggie mixture into the crust + return to the oven for an additional 20 minutes.
- Allow quiche to cool for 10 minutes + serve.

Notes
- vegetables – You can use any vegetable you like! I used a mix of tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, peppers, and onions – but anything would go great in this! You need about a cup and a half of vegetables in total (except for spinach) to fit well in an 8 inch shallow pie plate.
- milk – I used almond milk in this recipe to keep it paleo/whole30 but if you don’t follow those diets you can use regular milk
- cheese– Cheese is not part of Whole30/paleo – but if you’re not following those diets I highly recommend adding in goat cheese or parmesan to this. It adds so much flavor!
