Indian Egg Recipes Are Delicious…
….and great for vegetarians and meat eaters alike! We often get the request to do more Indian recipes as well as vegetarian recipes so here we’ve combined the too for a spice filled, vegetarian meal everyone can enjoy! While doing a keto vegetarian diet is definitely possible, making sure you’re getting a lot of nutrients from animal rich products like eggs and dairy is a great idea!We also have several other vegetarian, indian recipes like our spicy egg curry and curry tofu nuggets! Give them a try and let us know what you think.
Change Up Your Low Carb Breakfast!
While we love love love eggs in our household, they can get boring when all you do is scramble or hard boil them. Want to eat eggs, but change it up? Try our baked cheesy eggs. Want to depart from eggs altogether? Give our protein waffles, lemon poppey seed muffins or fathead bagels a try!
Low Carb Indian Eggs
If you aren’t a fan of Indian food you must not be a fan of flavor! If you just haven’t tried it before, that I can understand solely for the fact that Matt had never tried it until he met me. Growing up in the midwest he wasn’t exposed to such delicious things haha. If that is the case for you you should definitely give these Indian eggs a try before you go knocking them!
