This recipe is lectin free, dairy free (without A-1 Casein), and grain free! High in protein, low in carbs, and oh so satisfying! I make a dozen on the weekend and have them throughout the week! One makes a great “sidecar” to a salad; or have two for your main course at dinner!
Notes
Take care to choose the best eggs available to you. Ideally they should be pastured (chickens only come inside coop to sleep) and feed should not contain corn or soy; also organic is a must. I use eggs from a local farmer who distributes to local grocers in my area.
The cheeses recommended in this recipe do not contain A-1 Casein, and therefore meet the Dairy Free criteria outlined in The Safe Hazen.
