I started Atkins 3 weeks ago (have lost 8 lbs. so far!) Chanukah is coming. Do you have a low-carb version of "latkes" (potato pancakes)?Be my taster.. I made this a week ago to surprise my Jewish friends for the holiday and can't make up my mind if they were great or just different. Potatoes by nature are extra high in bad carbs, so Latkes are a real no no.. but these were fun.. let me know if you like them.. Fingers crossed.. :)
