I was desperate for a crispy snack and the only thing I could find that had any potential were some oyster mushrooms I’d planned on using for a mushroom pate. Late night snack attack won and we were off to the drawing board.
I separated the frills from the stems and tossed everything with extra-virgin olive oil, garlic salt and black pepper, poured it out on a parchment lined baking sheet and baked it at 400 degrees F for about 30 minutes. I was amazed at how crispy and delish they were!
I was craving a slice of apple pie but didn’t want to go through the whole mixing up a pie crust baking for an hour thing so instead I stirred up a pan of low-carb, sugar-free apple pie filling in just a few minutes. No measuring required!
Chicken, turkey and egg whites are all high protein, low fat and low carb so I like to keep that in mind when putting together a recovery meal.
Okay, I kinda fooled ya’ with the title of this recipe, because, Pork Rind Chicken doesn’t sound very appetizing, so Baked Bacon Chicken it is.

Since I didn’t have any tofu or onions I made mashed “potatoes” without them and not only were they easier they tasted even better! I even received an e-mail the next day from one of my dinner guests who still couldn’t believe he hadn’t eaten “real” mashed potatoes. Yes, I couldn’t resist. I told.
This is one of the recipes in a yet-to-be-published book tentatively titled “3-Ingredient Low Carb Breakfasts”.
The photo you see below is an experiment with different variations. All of which were delish, but had more than three ingredients.
This book is what you’ve been waiting for, the missing piece of the low carb puzzle.
I had all this lovely browned butter which I’d made a few days ago so I thought I’d use it to saute up some asparagus. That turned out to be a good decision 🙂
