LOW CARB Taco Eggs

If you are a taco lover like myself, you will absolutely love this dish. I make tacos a lot for dinner which means I always have leftover taco meat. This is one of my favorite ways to use it up and make a filling, low carb meal! I say meal by the way because I eat this for breakfast, lunch OR even dinner! Whenever the craving hits! The best part is you can use your favorite cheese, your favorite salsa, or even add queso or guacamole or whatever toppings are your favorite!

Taco Eggs- Serves 1 
1/4-1/3 cup leftover taco meat (beef, chicken, or turkey seasoned with Taco Seasoning)
1 egg
1/2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp half and half
1/4 tsp Taco Seasoning
1/4 cup of your favorite cheese (I use a Mexican cheese blend)
Plus any toppings you choose!

In a bowl whisk together the egg, half and half and 1/4 tsp taco seasoning and set aside (add a pinch of salt if your taco seasoning doesn't have any in it)
In a skillet over medium high heat melt the butter.
Then add the taco meat and warm through, about 2 minutes.
Then pour the egg mixture over the top and scramble the eggs with the meat.
Then top with your cheese and mix in to melt.
Flatten your eggs to get the cheese crispy. Flatten and wait 1-2 minutes and then flip to crisp the other side.
Serve with your favorite topping!
I love salsa and sour cream with some chopped, pickled jalapeños! 
Enjoy!

DIY Yogurt Bark | LOW CARB Dessert!

Yogurt bark is all the rage right now BUT what I didn't realize until now is that this might be the most perfect low carb sweet treat EVER! You can customize this recipe to whatever you like as far as flavors and for whatever you have on hand. There are literally thousands of combinations so you can make any flavor-craving you are having at the moment. What I believe might just be the best part is you don't have to feel guilty because as long as you choose low carb ingredients you are good to go AND you're staying on track with your low carb lifestyle. This is the combination I used today but use whatever you like and have!

Yogurt Bark- Cherry, Almond, Chocolate- Serves 1

1 container of Oikos Triple Zero Yogurt, Cherry Flavor

3 Tbsp chopped raw almonds

3 Tbsp low sugar, no sugar chocolate chips

I used a 15 oz ramekin lined with a piece of parchment paper. 

Scoop in the yogurt and smooth into an even layer with a spatula.

Then top with all of your toppings. Lightly push in the toppings so they are submerged in the yogurt. 

Freeze uncovered for at least 4 hours.

When you are ready to eat allow to sit at room temperature for at least 5 minutes then break apart into chunks and ENJOY!

*UPDATED*

I recently made this recipe using Keto Ratio yogurt for more protein!

18g of protein for the whole recipe!

Coconut Cashew Yogurt Bark:

1 container of Keto Ration Yogurt- coconut flavor

2 Tbsp unsweetened coconut flakes

1/4 cut raw cashews, chopped

Combine the yogurt and coconut flakes. Then stir in 1/2 the cashews. Smooth into a small ramekin like THIS thats been lined with parchment paper and freeze for a few hours or overnight. 

Run the bottom of the ramekin under hot water to loosen the bark. Remove and break into pieces.
