Who says low carb is not fun, flavorful or fantastic!? Whoever "they" are have got it all wrong! My Pepper Jack Chili Rellenos hit that savory spot in the most yummy part of my belly. Each of the 8 pieces are only 167 calories, 3.3g net carbs and 14g protein. If you want to double your portion, then have it as a main course with a side salad. The other great thing about this recipe is that it can easily be served for breakfast, lunch, dinner or all three! ;)
