• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup Pork rinds, crushed
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder

• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil or lard

Directions

Step 1

Slice the green tomatoes into approximately 1/4 inch thick slices.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, crushed pork rinds, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and mix with the heavy cream until well combined.

Heat the coconut oil or lard in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Dip each tomato slice into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 6

Dredge the tomato slice in the almond flour mixture, pressing the coating onto both sides to adhere well.
