looks amazing! Do you have the stats on it Keith?

For the entire thing its 210 calories, 45 carbs, 17 protein, 1 fat, 21 fiber

Cut into 8 pieces that would be:

65 calories, 6g of carb (3 are fiber so 3 net carbs), 6 g protein, 2 g of fat

per peice.

Thanks for doing the math Keith! Going to try this one for sure. Who doesn't like cheesy bread like stuff?

Do you think it would work with eggbeaters?  That would make the stats even better. . .

Probably, but I would stick with the real deal. Egg Beaters is manufactured and processed. Stick with whole foods, the fat in whole eggs is good for you.

Keith you can make so many things with this concoction.

Tots (covered in turkey chili)

Enchilada boats

taco "shells"

mini muffins

pressed into a cupcake pan browned and drop an egg in put back in oven..........egg in a basket

pizza crust

Soo yummy

Great Ideas!

I made this before and its very nice. If u put in a bit of baking soda or baking powder it rises a bit and is even more bread like. Keith...quinoa flour would really work nicely here too. 

Quinoa would bump up the protein and add some slow digesting carbs. Would be great for workout days!
