I thought I’d share with you guys this High Protein Low Carb Breakfast Casserole recipe that my husband created. My husband has been on a high protein, no sugar / low carb eating plan for about 9 months. This breakfast casserole is packed with 37 grams of protein per serving and it’s great to make at the beginning of the week and you can easily warm up a piece each day for breakfast.
High Protein Low Carb Breakfast
It’s packed with eggs, turkey bacon and sausage. He also swaps out the turkey bacon for ham too. So you can totally customize this breakfast casserole with proteins you love and/or veggies too.
