Serving Suggestion: For a true White Castle experience, top each serving with dill pickles and mustard. Or, make a sauce of dill pickle relish and mustard.  **make sure you count in the carbs for the pickles** 

This stuff tastes awesome and is something you can make for people you have over or make 2 of and take to an event (such as a church luncheon or work event) and they won't know it's a low carb recepie.
