Here’s another breakfast dish that you can eat for any meal of the day. It’s quick and easy and fits the keto lifestyle perfectly.
You will fry up the asparagus for a few minutes in your skillet along with the ham, pour over the egg mixture and pop it into the over for about 15 minutes and everything comes out golden and delicious. You can add the cheese as soon as you pull it out of the oven but if you want a crunchy cheese topping, just add the cheese about five minutes before you take it out of the oven.
You can substitute cheeses and if you don’t like asparagus, this works well with broccoli or cauliflower.
