Meatball!
We went to a place today, Brewzzi, that is located in a shopping center by our hotel. It's a local microbrewery that serves a variety of items with a bit of an Italian flare. Anyway, we decided it would be a great place to get some food and drink that was close so we tried it out.
I loved this place, but I realize I am a fan of the micro breweries. The first thing we got was an appetizer which could have been a meal for some. It was a speciaty item of theirs and it was a giant meatball with fresh ricotta cheese and grilled peppers. It was really yummy. It probably had some carbs in it as most meatballs do, but it didn't seem that bad to me. Really moist and tender. Their sauce was nummers too!

For my meal I got some eggplant rolls. They had a fancy name for them like eggplant-acotti or something silly but I can't remember it. The rolls were filled with mozzarella and ricotta and covered in their yummy marinara sauce. Eggplant is relatively low in carbs to it seemed like a great Italian food substitute. Oh it was so good. I'm sure that it was higher than I might want in the carb count, but I didn't even care. Anyone eating low carb will tell you Italian food is pretty off limits, but in this case it was a perfect combination. I might try to talk my wife into another visit before we go.
