Pork Roll-Ups

8 pork cutlets (or boneless chops pounded thin.)
8 breakfast sausage links (Jimmy Dean, Bob Evans, etc.)
1 egg, beaten with 1/2 cup water
1 cup crushed pork rinds
8 oz low-carb (no sugar added) tomato sauce
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
3/4 cup shredded cheese –– (Cheddar, Mozzarella, Swiss)

Preheat oven to 325°F. Sauté sausage until lightly browned. Place one sausage link on each pork cutlet and roll up, tucking in ends of pork to make a pouch. Hold together with a toothpick. Dip in egg and roll in crushed pork rinds. Chill thoroughly –– at least an hour (this keeps them together, so don't skip this step.) Arrange in baking dish, cover with sauce, and sprinkle with cheese. Bake 1 hour at 325° until done. (These can also be wrapped in foil and grilled, turning once.) Remove toothpicks before serving. Makes 8 servings. 2 grams of carbohydrate per serving.
