Atkins Revolution Rolls - great for those who can't or don't eat bread
Atkin's Revolution Rolls
Here is the basic recipe:
Preheat oven to 275 F.
Spray a cookie sheet with PAM.
Separate 3 eggs carefully into a glass or metal bowl, making sure none of the yolks gets into the whites.
To the yolks beat in 3 T cottage cheese or ricotta cheese, and 1 pkt of Splenda. Set aside.
Add 1/4 tsp cream of tartar to whites and beat with a hand mixer until whites stand up in stiff peaks.
Fold yolks gently into whites being careful not to break them down.
With a spoon carefully place the mixture on cookie sheet making 6 piles.
Bake for about 40 minutes until browned nicely and they look like Kaiser rolls.
Remove from oven, let cool, place in zip lock bags and refrigerate. These taste better after a few hours in the fridge or overnight.
They will deflate some, and soften up, but this makes them taste better anyway. Use 2 rolls to make a sandwich or burger.
They are about 0.5 gm carbs each.

2 of these put together is equal to a nice sized hamburger roll. I like to take 2 with me to a restaurant or fast food joint and order a burger with no bun. Any place will do that for you now, even McDonalds, Wendy's, etc. Then I just use my own bun and eat like everyone else.
I've found some different recipes for these and have tried a lot of them. I am currently making them by substituting 3 T cream cheese for the cottage cheese, and I like the texture much better. To the yolks I also add some onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch of Italian seasonings.
I have made a French toast version too by adding (always to the yolk mixture) cinnamon, 4 pkts of Splenda, and 1 tsp of vanilla. Then when I want French toast for breakfast I nuke 1 or 2 of these for 15 seconds and top with butter and SF syrup. It tastes like French toast to me!

Here is a variation that I found on Lowcarbfriends.com
3 eggs, separated
1/4 t cream of tartar
3 T sour cream
2 t onion powder
1 c shredded mozzerella cheese
Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar way beyond what you think is stiff enough. When you lift up your beater not one drop of egg white should move. Mix egg yolks, sour cream, onion powder and mozzerella cheese in separate bowl while the whites are beating. Carefully fold the egg yolk mixture into egg whites. Mix well but gently.
Drop mixture onto greased waxed paper-lined cookie sheet (or whatever pan you are using) in six piles. Bake at 300 for one hour. Chill overnight in plastic bag or tupperware. Enjoy!

and this one:
Garlic Bread
Bake a regular batch, then when cooled, add butter melted with fresh garlic and spread that on the rolls. Add grated romano cheese and sprinkle oregano on top of that. Baked them until they are a little browned on top, and it's just like garlic bread.

On the Atkins board these are the most popular replacement food. Nearly everyone on that board loves these and can't live without them. I am now in the ranks of the Rev Roll Addicts myself since I use them for so many things now, not just sandwiches. Yes, these were a lifesaver!

I remember these things now, but I didn't know they had a name. I made them for my husband when he was following Atkins. Lordy lordy, what a nuisance. Sorry, but I'm just not going to go to all this trouble. Also, I didn't care for the taste, they tasted metallic to me. I buy low carb burger rolls, bread, etc.

These take me 10 minutes from start to oven, so it's not time consuming at all to make them. But there are a few who hate the taste of them, that's why the seasonings are so important. I can't eat wheat so I don't have the option of buying the low carb breads and rolls. These are a staple for me now. I don't like them right out of the oven, they taste really funky and you're right, kind of metallic. After being in the zip lock bag and refrigerated overnight they turn into a whole different thing somehow, just like a roll.
