LOW CARB HAM & EGG CUPS
This recipe is one you can tailor to your needs. You can make as many cups as you need and you can tweak the ingredients to your taste. I made 4 of these cups using colby/mozzarella cheese and I topped a few with cherry tomatoes and asparagus. They were delicious! On my next batch, I plan to add a spoonful of rotel tomatoes. Some other possibilities: sriracha sauce, pesto, bacon bits, chives, etc. Be sure to check these after about 15-20 minutes of cooking if you prefer a soft yolk. If you are carb counting and/or following a diet for diabetes, each cup contains about 1gm carb. Enjoy!
