BREAKFAST BREAD
I took my low carb biscuit recipe and made it into a meal. This is my new go-to breakfast. It has everything in it; spicy sausage, veggies, cheese, all nestled in between a savory herb filled biscuit. I bake it on Sunday and package it in portions for my weekday breakfasts.

Dough
- 3 cups almond flour

- 1 clove garlic minced
- 8 ounces baby spinach

Notes
I like the Italian flavours for this dish, as well as the spice. You can mix up the sausage, herbs, and cheese to make it your own. This is also a great dish for a weekend breakfast, I would top it with a poached egg and some fresh fruit on the side.
