One of my favorite things about adopting a low-carb lifestyle is that the food is so delicious that everyone in the family will happily eat it. It just tastes good!

This colorful, flavor-packed, veggie & sausage low-carb egg scramble is one of my family’s favorite weekend low carb breakfasts, and a frequent request of my teenage daughters.

I love it because it’s the perfect way to use up any leftover vegetables and cheese I have sitting around in the refrigerator before my weekly grocery shopping trip.
