After being put onto these yummy treats (NO CARBS) and finding how availavle they are through selected BILO, Coles, Woolies and Franklins. I now wonder the various uses for them.

I love them do use with dips etc.

Rainbow tells me she uses them as a coating for fish etc. and for Mock Franch Toast.

Anyone else have any bright ideas?

Wendye, Here's the recipe using the pork rinds, hope you like them, I usually make double the recipe and freeze them:

Mock French Toast

1/2 a 3-oz bag UNFLAVORED pork rinds
2 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 splenda packets
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Crumble pork rinds until the resemble fine bread crumbs.
Beat eggs well then mix with the remaining ingredients and beat again. Add crushed pork rinds to the egg/cream mixture and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Mix will thicken to a "gloppy" phase.
Meanwhile, heat skillet or griddle with butter or oil, and when hot, fry pancakes until golden brown on both sides. Serve with lots of butter and low-carb syrup.

Just a tip: I usually grind the pork rinds in my food processor, and I do quite a few packets at once and store them in a jar so that when I need them for this recipe or to crumb chicken etc. I have them on hand and ready to use.

Thanx Rainbow - I'm going to try this recipe for brekky tomorrow.
Hope i enjoy it too.

I am addicted to eggplants right now... I mean REALLY addicted. I guess they have something in them that my body is craving. Anyway, I am going to pick porkie things up today and try making eggplant parmigana/snitchels. If it goes well I am going to move onto veal.

Did I mention I live for Eggplant?

3 Tablespoons of soy flour
Crushed Pork Krackles
1 Tablespoon of parmesan cheese
1/4 Tablespoon of salt
1/4 Tablespoon of paprika
A Dash of pepper
A Dash of seasoning
Mix together and roll 2 skinless boneless chicken breasts in it.
Heat a little oil in your pan, fry it until it's cooked through... turns out nice and golden,

1 bag pork rinds -- crushed
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3 eggs -- beaten

Add all the ingredients and mix well. Press into a non-stick sprayed pie plate, bottom and sides. Bake for about 8 minutes. Add your toppings, and then rebake until cheese and toppings are hot. The recipe could easily be doubled to fit an actual pizza pan.

Thanx Elle - will try that one.

My new recipe is Nachos using the pork rinds instead of corn chips - YUMMO.

and I am experimenting with the fake french toast to make a savoury version with cheese, diced bacon, a little onion and capsicum ??? Will let you kow how it goes.

Hey Reymi_VZ

How did the parmegana go???? I was waiting to hear.

Elle,
There are different size bags of pork Rinds. What size do you use for your pizza base?????? Can you tell us the size on the bag please.
Thanks
Cindy

Another suggeston is to mix the pork rind crumbs with parmesan cheese to make a yummy coating for chicken snitzel or fish. I gues you could add some herbs as well!
