Last year I went to my doctor for a routine checkup and found out that I was very low in iron. I started taking an iron supplement, and like I usually do, quit taking it as frequently as I should. Well, a week ago I started feeling very weak, being overly tired, having heart palpitations and leg cramps. I knew these were signs of low iron again, and decided I better start taking my iron pills, go make an appointment to see my doc and eat some liver! My grandma used to make fried chicken a lot, it was her favorite. Everytime she'd make it, she'd fry up the livers just me! It's one of my favorite things!! Every since going low carb, I don't have them as much because you can only get them fried up with flour at restuarants. So I decided I needed to go make my own, using a version of my Chicken Nugget breading. Well, this wasn't a great idea, because livers are SO GROSS raw! I really was just grossing myself out as I was disecting them trying to get them ready to fry up. They were bloody (yeah, I know, DUH!), and stringy...not all of them were the same color or consistency even! But I managed to make a big enough batch to eat for my lunch. And actually...they tasted awesome!! I put them in an egg and cream wash, then shook them up in a bag of 1 cup of almond flour, 2 TB garlic salt, 1T black pepper. Almost as good as grandma used to make!
