Grain Free Egg And Bacon Bites

Pin

I wanted to make an appetizer with hard boiled eggs, but I didn't have time to make scotch eggs.

I decided to slice them in bite size slices, then dip them into an egg wash, and coat them in grain free breading. Next, I baked them in the oven, turning once, until browned. Then I topped them with cooked bacon crumbles and cheese.

I garnished them with  optional Frank's red pepper sauce ( I like spicy). These were a great low carb, primal, high protein snack.
