FacebookyoutubeinstagramFacebookyoutubeinstagram

Here is a super quick and easy high protein, low carb breakfast option that can be served warm or taken on the go. Add any vegetable or cheese you like and customize it to make it yours!

I love that this recipe works with macro counting, and is balanced in healthy fats, protein and carbs and gluten for those of you with sensitivities. It’s also a delicious alternative to making omelets, or eggs another way, and you get to enjoy 3 muffins per serving. Enjoy!
