1 c half & half 5 oz cheese*-cut up or grated1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp mustard powder**
How to Prepare:
Heat oven to 350.
In a food processor, grind the pork rinds. Add the eggs, onion,
garlic and mustard powders and cheese. Blend well until cheese is

dough.

Sharp cheddar would give a stronger cheese flavor.

bowl. Place egg white “face” down on an absorbent paper towel.Using

pepper to taste. Using a whirr mixer (single bladed hand mixer),
blend until all the lumps are gone.I use a pastry shooter to fill

sprinkle with paprika.

Fried Jicama Chips Serves:One
CarbsPerServing:6 Prep Time:10 minutes or less
Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
1/2 of a medium Jicama
Seasonings of choicePeanut Oil (or other oil suitable for high heat
frying)
How to Prepare:
Peel and rinse 1/2 of one globe of jicama. Slice paper thin, using
one of those “as seen on TV” type vegetable slicers if you can. They
give you the thinnest slices. Otherwise use a very sharp knife and
slice carefully and thinly. Blot excess moisture from slices.
Use enough oil to cover bottom of large skillet and to cover the
slices, about 1/4″ deep should do it. Heat oil, but do NOT OVERHEAT.
Add jicama slices in a single layer. You won’t get them all done in
one batch. Fry each batch until you have browning around the edges,
then remove to paper towels to drain while the next batch frys.
The chips shrink considerably. While still warm sprinkle them with
pepper, salt, low carb seasonings, parmesan cheese, whatever you
like, but lightly.
If you make the slices thin enough and fry carefully these chips
come out so delicate and crunchy. Really too delicate for dipping
unless you just use a thin Ranch dip or something.

spread the cream cheese on).

Spread the softened cream cheese onto one slice of ham. Lay the
pickle at one end of the sliced ham. Roll it up. You may need to
push some cream cheese into each end when its completely rolled.
Place rolll on a plate with the seam down. Repeat this until you run
out of cream cheese. Regrierate for a few hours or long enough for
the cream cheese to harden. Using sharp knife and seam down, slice
the roll into 1/4 inch slices. You will want to lay each round slice

holiday treat for years. Everyone loves them.

3 serrano peppers 3 roma tomatoes3 green onions 1 tsp minced garlic

Remove seed from peppers, chop all ingredients into very small
pieces, mix together. Can add a dash of salt if you like. Letting

the serranos over jalapenos because the serranos “heat” isn’t as
intense, but if you like it hot try more pepper or jalapeno.
Pigs in a Blanket 1 CarbsPerServing:no counts provided Effort:Easy
Ingredients:
1 package carbolite bread mix
(maybe the keto yeast bread would work -but I prefer carbo-lite
ingredients to make bread)40 little smokie sausages
40 strips cheese approx 1″ long by 1/4″ wide
40 strips thin jalapeno 1″ long by 1/4″ wide(optional)
How to Prepare:
Make bread in bread dough according to package directions either by
hand or in bread machine. As soon as it’s done mixing, remove and
put in an oiled bowl and let rest for 20 minutes. Cut dough into 4
equal pieces, working with 1 at a time and keeping the others
covered to keep from drying out. Cut dough section into 10 pieces
and flatten with the heel of your hand until it’s about 2″x2″
square. Place a little smokie, a cheese strip and a jalapeno strip
(if using) in the center and roll the dough around it, pinching the
seams to seal (dampen your fingers with water if needed). Place seam
side down on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with butter
flavored cooking spray. Once all the pigs are made, spray the tops
with the cooking spray and place in a warm, draft free place (like
an oven) to rise for 1 hour. If you notice any coming apart, pinch
the seams again or else the cheese will run out as they bake.
Preheat oven to 350f. Bake pigs until golden brown. Makes 40
appetizer pigs. Serve with assorted dipping sauces.
