Paleo & Keto Friendly
Eggs are an all-around healthy option for breakfast. They fit in a variety of diet plans including Paleo, Keto and Whole30. Here’s how to make them for your specific diet plan.
Keto
When you are eating Keto, the most important thing is to count the net carbs. So when you cook with sausage, for example, pay attention to the amount of sugar in the sausage. Try to choose sugar-free sausage or bacon. Or make a vegetable frittata. Remember: cheese is a very low-carb food, so cheese up your frittata!
Whole30
To be Whole30 compliant, a recipe needs to be sugar-free and dairy-free. So just pack your frittata with veggies and sugar-free meat and you’ll be good to go.
Paleo
Remember, Paleo recipes follow eating how the caveman ate. So you can’t use any modern farming techniques or processed foods. For this frittata to be Paleo, choose free-range eggs, don’t use cheese, and use grass-fed meats. You can use any vegetables you want.
