One or the other or both?

<p>I am new to Paleo and have been looking up a number of breakfast recipe's off the internet, which have worked out really well. However, for the last week I have been chopping up nuts and eating it like cereal with almond milk for breakfast, as well as one whole avocado. I know both are high in Omega-3 fats, but is eating both of these a staple in the morning too much? I quickly fall into routines, so unless I learn that this is overkill, I will likely continue this as my staple breakfast on a daily basis. </p>
<p>The mix of nuts is about 1/4 cup of Walnuts, 2 Tbsp Almonds, 1 Tbsp Macadamia nuts, 1 Tbsp, almond milk and a touch pure grade-b maple syrup.</p>
<p>I'm tall and have always been on the leaner side. I'd be interested in leaning out a little bit more, but definitely didn't go Paleo in order to lose weight, so much as for the health benefits.</p>
<p>Thanks </p>

Avocado or nut based cereal in the morning?foreveryoung2012-04-27T11:15:46Z2012-04-27T11:15:46Z<p>Correction: nuts and avocado are quite low in omega 3 fats. They are actually composed more of monounsaturated and omega-6 fats. </p>
<p>Now, to answer the question, definitely one or the other. However, just eating fat for breakfast is not very substantial. A more balanced breakfast might look something more along the lines of a soft boiled egg, a serving of fruit, and a handful of almonds. </p>
<p>Hope that helps you out some!</p>

How about a hard-boiled egg, some chopped apples and berries with some slivered almonds and coconut milk on top?</p>
