Great recipe! I used feta by mistake and it was still gorgeous. Can't wait to have it again!
My dtr refuses to do it with me and I need some accountability. Is there a forum on there or can someone be my buddy?
Marium, Generally fruits are going to be too high fructose and too high carb to have a place in a ketogenic diet. The exceptions are avocado, tomatoes and small quantities of berries. You will still have to keep an eye on carb count though!

Kale has more carbs and a different texture and takes a different amount of time to cook down. If you try this sub, try only using half the called for amount.
Hi, Barb! You can simply swap that meal for any of our other keto meals. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/recipes
Two tablespoons (tbsp) of olive oil is correct for two servings. One serving is one tablespoon (tbsp) of olive oil.
Unfortunately there is not a good substitute for the mushrooms that are going to be equal in terms of carb count or nutrition. If you don't care for mushrooms, in this case, finding another frittata would be a better option. In good news, we have many to choose from.
