This looks delish and I am going to try it both with and without the almond flour. THANK YOU for the video! BUT PLEASE OH PLEASE don't scrape your nonstick pans with a metal utensil... I cringed with every scrape while you were putting the onion/pepper/ham into the cups! YIKES! But otherwise, the video is clear and informative. I appreciate it.

What does the (omit on induction) comment regarding the almond flour mean? The only thing I think of is induction cooktops but that doesn't seem to apply here' Jim B.

Jim... that comment is in reference to the ATKINS DIET INDUCTION stage... you want to avoid carbs so you can leave the almond flour out.
