Mad Creations Pork Rind Chicken Keto Schnitzel…….how AHHH-mazing does that sound?

To me LCHF affords me the ability to really go crazy with the imagination and create some extremely tasty and indulgent food.  Like really yummy indulgence!

This is a great way to definitely out-do a basic bread crumb and have all of your friends and family wanting to convert to keto.  I choose to use Poppa Porkys rinds as they are totally compliant as they are cooked in lard only.

If you love this you really need to check out the Naked Taco

Such a simple dish that everyone will ask you to make it again and again
