Eggs feature very regularly on my breakfast menu, especially when I am following a low carb or keto plan as they are perfect for my macro requirements.

They are easy to make and I usually include them when I make breakfast bowls along with avocado, sweet potato, bacon (or salmon) and tomatoes.

I have been adding turmeric powder to my scrambled eggs for some time now to get some extra health benefits.

Turmeric is a spice which is typically grown in Asia and Central America and it has so many health benefits.

Turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, promotes healthy digestion and it is an anti-oxidant.

You can use it flavour soups (like my red lentil & quinoa soup) and to flavour warmer drinks, like my turmeric hot chocolate and turmeric latte.
