Keto Snack Recipe Review

Momma Sassy and I thought we would try a Keto snack recipe. It's easy and has only 2 ingredients. What's great about this recipe is you can use your choice of cheese and center.  Ingredients Shredded cheese of your choice Pickel of your choice Directions : 1. Heat oven to 350.  2. Spray your pan with a cooking spray.  3. Put a layer of cheese in each section. (We decided to use a fiesta blend of shredded cheese)  4. Put a pickle slice (or whatever you would like) on top of the cheese. We used Mt. Olive hamburger dill pickles.  5. Cover with another layer of cheese. 6. Bake at 350 for about 12-14 minutes. We took ours out at 13 minutes. Easy to take out of the pan! If you have an air fryer (which we don't) they may come out crispier.  I suggest you have a sauce with them to add another flavor to this snack. We tried ranch dressing and the Wahlburgers sauce.  Our opinion of this snack...it was EASY! This

***UPDATED 3/13/24*** I start the new year by each day doing something to organize my home. Sundays I do NO housework. Everyone needs a day of rest.

Write Notes on the Washer    Amazon.com Stop shrinking your sweaters! When you put a load of clothes into your washing machine, use a dry-erase marker to note on the lid which items should not go into the dryer. That way, whoever switches the load from the washing machine to the dryer will know which items to leave out for line drying. And believe me, if you have others helping you with the laundry like I do, this is a great tip.    The enamel finish on most washing machine lids is like a whiteboard, and dry-erase markers can be removed easily with a dry p

I love to use my Instant Pot . I've made everything from hard-boiled eggs to dessert. I did learn that if you make a dessert after making a pot roast, have an extra seal on hand because the seal holds odors and you may have a cake tasting like a pot roast.
