If you're looking for a high protein, lower carb version of your favorite chicken parmesan recipe, look no further. This almond flour chicken parm is really good and I try to make it at least once a month. It's cheesey and you get a little more protein, fat and fiber from the almond flour compared to all-purpose flour.
