Gluten-Free Low Carb Bread

I have often found that gluten-free breads are lacking in texture and fluffiness and are usually full of additives that I do not want in my body. In experimenting with homemade bread making, I discovered this low carb gluten-free option that has fulfilled every bread craving I had.

This gluten free bread is jam packed with quality protein and healthy fats, leaving you full after consuming a slice with your meal. It is hearty, delicious and oh so simple to make.

Now I know what you are thinking. 12 eggs?? That is alot! Well there are two important considerations here:

1. Choosing free range and organic eggs allows you to reap the benefits of this quality protein. This includes the numerous vitamins and minerals within: iron, phosphorous, calcium, potassium and more.

2. Choosing quality fats and protein over a high amount of flour makes the body happy. Contrary to popular belief, this sets you up for improved heart health, decrease in inflammation and even helps with weight loss.

So tuck into this wonderful gluten free bread option and let me know what you think!

Persian Savory Herb Quiche

This Persian Herb Quiche (also known as KuKu Sabzi) is one of the most flavorful, refreshing dishes one could try. This is a Persian Herb Frittata, that is made of fresh parsley, cilantro, dill, and green onions. This is a simple, flavorful, yet delicious and nutritious dish that comes together quickly by whisking some eggs with the herbs and some spices. KuKu can be served either as an appetizer or the main dish.
Traditionally, Kuku is made on the stovetop, but it also can be baked in the oven for a healthier version. I usually like to bake it as less oil is used. Kuku goes perfectly with a side of cucumber and yogurt or Tzatziki.
