So, this week Melissa from I Breathe … I’m Hungry has been on an egg fast and I’ve read every single one of her posts. I was curious how she would be able to do it without getting so sick of eggs (I do and I don’t eat nearly enough to survive JUST on eggs for even one day). Some of the recipes she came up with are PERFECT for a keto diet (High fat, low carb, moderate protein) and anyone on Atkins who is trying to work up something different to add to their menu.
So, here are her posts from this week:
