For those following a Paleo or low carbohydrate diet, eggs for breakfast can start to get boring pretty quickly. Enjoying your food and having variety is a key component of any long term health plan.
Now, what i like about this recipe is that it is quick and easy. You can quickly prepare and then pop it in the oven to cook whilst you are getting ready for the day.
These bacon and eggs cups are also a protein packed meal which is ideal to have after training to help with muscle repair and growth. They can be made in advanced and taken with you to eat on the run…not that I encourage too much eating on the go, but we don’t always have the luxury of sitting down and savouring our meals, especially in the morning.
So give these ones a go and let me know how you enjoy them.
