Dietitian’s tip

Eggs and vegetables keep this very low in carb, so it's a steady, blood-sugar-friendly breakfast on its own.

Dietitian’s notes

  • Cook the pepper and onion until soft before the eggs go in so they sweeten.
  • Pull the eggs off the heat while still glossy - they keep cooking on the plate.
