Starting your day with a low-carb breakfast is so important because it fills you up in a way that many regular breakfast foods simply cannot.
That’s why I’m in crazy love with Egg Cloud Delight. It definitely keeps hunger pangs at bay throughout your morning hustle and bustle. All that protein really does the job!
Not a fan of heavy breakfasts? This is perfect for you. It’s light and airy, despite being chock-full of the good stuff your body needs when you’re living a low carb lifestyle.
If you’re looking for a breakfast you can make to freeze and eat later, this is not it. Egg Cloud Delight should be served immediately.
Don’t worry though! This is super easy to make and it only takes minutes. If saving time in the mornings is important to you, chop the ham and chives ahead of time.
