PROTEIN BASED LOW CARB BREADING MIX FOR BAKING AND FRYING

MSW will not settle

Periodically if I can stand the clean up I will fry foods.  However, I miss the light dredging in flour first for that nice crispy coating.  I'm very carb sensitive so I don't waste my limited carbs on things like breading.  I also don't care for the taste of most fat, but a crispy fried fish fillet does it for me sometimes.  Two average fillets of flounder are just 1.5 net carbs.   

I'll post this to the recipe thread and to NYtoATL's lc recipe group as well.    Should you try this, please feel free to make improvements and give your feed back.  No offense taken if its not to your liking.  I'm no recipe maven.  I create only out of desperation.

 This looks yummy! 

Two of my other low-carb breading faves are:  peanut flour and almond meal, both available at Trader Joe's.  I haven't used unflavored whey protein before, but I sure will give it a try!
