Since we’ve been having such great success, we’ve decided to stick to it for a while. Therefore, you’ll probably seeing more keto-friendly recipes here at Our Countertop.

This recipe is no exception to our new and improved carb free lifestyle. Clocking in at just a couple of carbs, this pork tenderloin is everything you want in a low carb recipe. It’s full of flavor, healthy, and will make you forget all about the fact that you’re on a diet.

The best part about our parmesan crusted pork is that it’s SO easy. I cannot stress that enough. In just about 30 minutes, you’ll have dinner on the table. Pair it with some asparagus or broccoli and dinner will be served in no time at all.

We melted some butter with a dash of garlic powder in the microwave and dipped the pork in it and WOW. It was to die for.
