This tasted more like a pancake than French toast, but was great, especially with maple syrup. if it's difficult to flip, cut the pancake in half.

Luscious Ricotta Pancakes

Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup cottage or ricotta cheese
1/4 cup soy protein isolate

little water

Beat eggs well. Add cottage cheese and beat. Add soy powder and salt. Mix well. Stir in a little water, so the batter is not quite so thick. Heat oil in a frying pan, and when hot, spoon pancake batter in. Spread it around a little so pancakes are not too thick. When bubbly on top, turn, and cook until bottoms are done.

Serves 2 @ 5 carb each

This was pretty good, but if you hate pork rinds, don't try it. The flavor is not real strong, but it's there.

As a low carb dieter, you won't need to monitor your protein intake. If anything, you will want ensure you are consuming enough. Protein will complement your weight loss--especially if you are following some type of exercise regimen--by building muscle, which allows you to burn fat much faster. If your muscles are sore after your regular exercise regimen, you should try to boost your protein intake. Otherwise, you are probably consuming enough--and this is not something you need to worry about. Another thing you should consider is whether or not you are getting enough exercise. Building muscle can seriously expedite your weight loss, especially when you are on a low carb, high protein diet. If you haven’t started one already, you should consider adding some minor aerobic exercise--such as walking 3-5 times each week-- and weight training--such as squats and bench presses--to your dietary plan, even if it isn’t required. The last thing you need to consider is your fat intake. While most low carb diets don’t give any suggested fat-calorie caps, they will tell you to eat a "moderate" amount--and to stick mainly to good...
