Breakfast bowls and skillets aren't usually something that fits well into a lower carb lifestyle with their usual base of potatoes, noodles, or rice, but this recipe for a low carb breakfast skillet will scratch that itch with a colorful mixture of healthy vegetables, seasoning, and of course an egg for a punch of extra protein.
