Carnivore Chicken Nuggets

I feel like all chicken nuggets should be carnivore but sadly, most are not. In fact, many of the store bough chicken nuggets have more than 18 carbs in just 4 nuggets. .These delicious "carnivore" chicken nuggets don't use almond flour, are super easy to make and are less than 2 carbs per serving
