These sautéed green beans and mushrooms are the perfect way to sneak in more veggies to your mornings. Throw them on a plate with some eggs and / or bacon, and you’ve got yourself a killer breakfast!
I was all about breakfast sides during my Whole30. Like my crispy breakfast potatoes, which got me through the mornings where I just couldn’t face one more egg! But I did face that egg, because I got to enjoy it with some damn potatoes! And these sautéed green beans with mushrooms and onions – they were usually right there beside the potatoes.
I remember seeing a photo of beans and mushrooms together somewhere awhile back and thinking DAMN what an unbeatable combination. So I chopped some up, threw them in a pan and covered them in coconut aminos and the rest is history.
I make a big batch of these once a week, so I can easily reheat some for breakfast every other day. I don’t know about you guys but I’m all about the easy – especially when it comes to first thing in the morning! And these store well in an airtight container for up to 5 days (pretty sure they won’t last that long).
And although I’ve branded these a “breakfast side”, let’s be real – you could eat this at anytime of day. Serve them up with dinner for all I care. You rebel you.

These are perfect for breakfast on the Whole30. I struggle without being able to have bread or cereal, so it was great to find this recipe and have something else to enjoy

Leon I feel your pain – I struggled with breakfast the most of the whole30! Hang in there – it’s a long slog but it’s worth it!
