Spring Time Frittata








     This will have you experiencing all the feels.  You might think this a breakfast treat, but we actually had it for dinner.  It was a hit, my hubs had 2.5 pieces, that is the biggest compliment a girl can have!  Each of these 8 keto vegetarian slices are only 257 calories, 9.6g carbs, 2.6g fiber, 7g net carbs, 13.6g protein and 23g fat.  The title of this recipe implies it's best in Spring, but in truth, this would be delightful all year long!!!  :)

Ingredients for 8 slices~
12oz trimmed Zucchini, grated into a dish cloth covered bowl
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 medium chopped Onion
1 Tablespoon Garlic

8 large Eggs
1/3 cup Sour Cream

1/4 cup crumbled Goat Cheese
