20 Minute Meal: Spicy Mexican Veggie Egg Bake (Paleo & Primal)

20 Minute Meal: Spicy Mexican Veggie Egg Bake (Paleo & Primal)

Dani
 I am constantly trying to come up with vegetarian recipes that are unprocessed, free of grains and legumes and yet still full of healthy fats and proteins. It ain't easy but I get it done. This easy Spicy Mexican Egg Bake is an easy dinner we like to make. It would also make a good brunch!
