I adapted the recipe from Fran McCullough's "The Low-Carb Cookbook" It's super easy!!

6 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated cheese (I used cheddar)
salt and pepper

Then I added some stuff
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
a handful of frozen pepper/onion medley
a handful of frozen spinach
a handful of diced ham
about 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Preheat oven to 350F and butter your baking dish. Beat eggs, cream salt, pepper, garlic powder together in a large bowl. Add cheeses. In a large skillet, saute veggies and ham until the veggies are thawed and everything is warmed through. Add to egg mixture. Pour in prepared baking dish and bake for 40 min. or until set and nicely browned.

Enjoy!!

Crispy, Zero carb snack

OK. I have been trolling the board for about 2 weeks now and I particularly love this thread. I tried the Egg Drop Soup and it was fab! My kids loved it too. I am only going on Atkins because I know how good I felt on it a few years ago and I need to get my energy back. I am not really trying to lose weight, just burn fat.

I am looking for a quick, crunchy, 0 carb snack. Any ideas? I try to stay away from pork so the pepperoni and fried pork rinds are not really a viable option.

Any takers? Oh, and WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I love that egg drop soup!!! I actually want to make some tonight (yum yum!)

I can't think of any zero carb but some low carb crunchys could be:
zuchinni or cauliflower chips
cheese chips (although for probably lower carb you could get zuchinni or cauliflower chips)
raw veggies (cauliflower, broccoli, celery)

Those are my favorites for crunchy LC goodness.
Good luck!

Flax crackers are also 0 net carbs and you're allowed 2 Tbsp per day on induction as needed for fiber.

I lurve crunchy, LC goodness. LOL! (Taking from Jenn)

How about a raw veggie tray for crunchy?? Or pickles?
Or Fresh green peppers are my favorite, refreshing kinda crunch!
Other than that - I have been back on a microwave cheese kick for my crunch lately.

It all sounds so great. Of course, my body can only take so much cheese in a day!

I tried frying pickles using a recipe here, but cannot get the *ahem* pork rind batter to stick. Any ideas?

Try dredging the cheese squares in spices before nuking. We LOVE a mixture of salt, pepper and garam masala. Tastes like Indian snacks!

Or chili powder and cumin, salt & pepper... or garlic powder... or onion powder... you get the idea! They are great!

Barb: I've been in love with this roasted garlic spice mix... I think I'll try that on some cheese tonight. I bought some baby swiss to try as chips. My parents LOVE LOVE LOVE them and tell me all the time to try it.
