A tasty, low-carb spin on baked eggs. This is the perfect meal for breakfast, brunch or dinner. I love when a dish can be served both as breakfast or dinner. The combination of the fiber in the veggies and the protein in eggs will keep you full and energized through out the day. It is a family favorite from my mom and she is famous for these baked eggs!
