"There is nothing particularly unique about these - I am surprised nothing similar is posted. I am posting it because I have started making this all the time instead of my other recipe, Recipe #64820. I originally got this recipe from 500 Low-Carb Recipes by Dana Carpender. According to the cookbook, each egg half should have a trace of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 3 grams of protein."
