- In a small bowl, add 1/4 cup of the almond meal, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Stir to combine.
- With a spoon or veggie peeler, peel the ginger. Grate into a small bowl
- Separate the eggs, adding the egg whites to the bowl. Add the juice of one lime
- Set up a line with the egg whites and almond meal bowls.
