Cheesy Omelette Taco on plate

Cheesy Omelette TacoThis is a fun new way to have a low-carb breakfast. It's essentially an omelette made in a waffle maker, folded in half and filled to make a big taco. When you add cheese to the hot waffle maker before you add the eggs, it creates a fantastic crunch without the use of tortillas or any other type of grain.

 

Spaghetti Squash Fritters on plate

Spaghetti Squash FrittersI've been getting a bit tired of spaghetti squash in the usual form I prepare it; with spaghetti sauce or as a layered lasagna.
