Vegetable Cassarole

image-asset (10).jpeg

I’m on a big egg kick. Eggs with cheese and veggies are so versatile and so easy to cook — not to mention, always delicious. This dish is also keto and low carb friendly. It can be prepped the night before and it’s perfect for company. You can add any vegetable or type of cheese to this dish. You can also omit adding salt to reduce the sodium (the cheese has plenty of salt without having to add any).
