    Bun looks pretty nummy, @psuLemon, is it low carb or 'regular' just fits your macros today? I've been eating too much gluten free toast (which is usually even higher in carb than regular) warm out of the toaster with lots of melting butter. BAD combo... uniform pants are starting to feel quite uncomfy these days. Gotta haul myself back on a stricter wagon.

    It's a low carb bun. It's from a company called 647. I believe it's like 4 net carbs per bun.

    @erin3011 what were the cutlets breaded with? They look pretty tasty.

    Just parm and egg! Works amazingly. Got it from Maria Emmerich’s Keto Comfort foods. Excuse my changes in pencil, I had to adjust the recipe because I thawed out too many pork chops! 😂

    I run higher protein than most traditionally on Keto. Below is one of my 2 self-designed recipes. This is my higher protein one but I do note how to reduce carbs more.


    4 oz nut milk
    2 tbsp chia seeds
    4 oz greek yogurt (if you want carbs or calories lower, do 8 oz nut milk and no yogurt)
    1 scoop chocolate protein powder (optional)
    2 tbsp cocoa powder

    1. Thoroughly combine chia seeds and milk.
    2. Add yogurt and thoroughly mix again
    3. Add optional protein powder and cocoa powder
    4. Put in refrigerator for 1 hr + (ideally overnight)
    5. Pull out of frig, pour in serving dish
    6. Top with a layer of nuts or Lily's chocolate chips
    7. Top with whipped cream

    Keep me posted. Adding sweetener was a good call, most cocoa is fairly bitter.

    i didn’t wait till tomorrow lol. i split in 3 servings of 3oz each so my netcarbs were only 3 without whipped cream, so not bad. i loved the texture very much, was smooth tasting like pudding. I will be keeping your recipe and making it often AFTER i get the ‘dutch processed’ cocoa powder version i ordered an hour ago, the 100% cacoa powder i use was just horribly bitter for desert use, even 8 drops of liquid sucralose i added to the 3oz i ate couldn’t tame it down :# . thanks for recipe.

    Yea, my protein powder is what makes mine super smooth and not bitter.

    A bit lower on the fat side, but the whole dinner was less than 400 calories
