    Getting protein in at breakfast can help with your weight-loss goals. Image Credit: Livestrong.com This vegan breakfast provides a healthy balance of macros, sure to keep you feeling satisfied throughout the day. Each serving is about 40 percent carbs, 40 percent fat and 20 percent protein. Traditional breakfast foods like plain oats, cereal and toast are carb-based and fall short in the protein category. This is why most people have protein later in the day as a part of lunch and dinner, according to a January 2014 paper in the ‌Journal of Nutrition‌.

    Advertisement Incorporating protein into your breakfast is important for helping to build lean muscle, which plays an important role in maintaining your metabolism and, ultimately, supporting your weight-management goals.
