 There’s no question I love eggs. Funny enough my husband hates them. If only he loved them like me, we could have dishes like this low carb pepper & gruyere frittata for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s a dish that is so easy to make and you can put whatever you want in them. Today I wanted to use some of the colorful peppers I had in the fridge and grated gruyere cheese. Since I was the only one eating this, I was able to freeze half for a quick low carb breakfast or lunch someday.

My Love Of Low Carb Frittatas 

One of my most popular low carb posts is a low carb breakfast pizza. It’s essentially a frittata like this with breakfast sausage, peppers and cheese toppings – just like a pizza. I also have a pepperoni pizza frittata that is very popular and low carb too. That is the great thing about these frittatas: they can be used as a substitute for pizza crust. It doesn’t taste like bread but it sure tastes good and goes well with all the toppings.

I love this type double handle deep skillet for making frittatas. Frittata start on the stove and end in the oven and this pan has the side handles for easy maneuvering and it’s also oven safe. An added bonus is that it looks nice on the table when serving.

This frittata would make a nice low carb brunch dish. It’s light, easy and good for breakfast or lunch. I hope you like this low carb egg recipe as much as I did and the nutritional information for 1 piece is:

218 / 16.7g fat / 3.1g carbs / 0.4g fiber / 13.5g protein = 2.7g net carbs

I buy most of usual low carb ingredients and kitchen gadgets on Amazon. If you are interested in any of these products check them out on my Amazon page.

      Oh my goodness, how could I forget to put the eggs in the recipe! It’s fixed now and I used 12 eggs and the pan size was 11″ in diameter. Hope that helps!

    This looks so fresh and healthy. I love to make quiche for the family but this would be a great alternative.
