Eggplant Parmie Sticks
A parmie (or parma depending on where you’re from or your preference) is a classic ham and Parmesan cheese topping and a favourite across the country. We’ve created an easy low-carb version by adding it to eggplant and switching out the ham for crushed pork rinds. For extra nutritional value, keep the skins on your eggplant sticks
