Pork Rolls With Provolone Cheese
Pork Rolls With Provolone Cheese
"Tender pork, melty cheese, and flavorful mushroom sauce all in one dish. And what’s best, this tasty dinner meal has only 4.4g net carbs in single serving. While it’s good enough served on its own, consider making it with mashed cauliflower and even some roast keto vegetables on the side. Don’t overstuff the rolls with cheese and spinach to prevent the filling from seeping out and burning while baking. When the pork is done, let it sit on the counter for at least 10 minutes before pouring the mushroom sauce."
