I've heard pros and cons for exercising on an empty stomach. I think it has the most benefit for a high carb dieter......my opinion is empty stomach cardio is unnecessary for low carber as we are already using fat for fuel. The only time I do empty stomach am cardio is Sun after my carb up weekend, to hasten the return to ketosis.
My normal routine during the week is to have 2eggs/2egg whites in butter, and coffee w/cream, about an hour to an hour and a half prior to exercise. Then immediately after exercise (the intense sessions) I take a post workout shake of protein powder and dextrose (15g). (Thanks Dawna, for mentioning Atkins addressing this in DANDR....I missed this!)
So I think your breakfast is fantastic and yummy.
