No Carb Cheese Crackers - 0 carbs

Low Carb Crackers
I was looking for something to make with chicken soup and the low carb cracker recipe I found on DiabetesForum.com used Almonds, which I cannot due to an allergy.

So I played with it a bit and made some no-carb crackers - and they taste great! The only thing is, I did not measure the cheese I grated - I did 16 strokes on the grater and guessed that was 2 ounces? I will have to measure it next time. But no matter how much cheese, it was still no carb.

Servings - makes 5 crackers
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Net Carbs: 0g carbs per cracker
Potential Allergens: dairy
Free of Wheat, Gluten, Egg, Soy, Sugar, Nuts, meat.

Grate any cheese of your choice, sprinkle 5 piles on baking sheet.
Ingredients:
5 tbsp Mozzarella cheese, whole milk, whole fat
5 - 1/4 tsp Parmesan cheese, grated
Garlic Salt (optional)

Preparation:
I used a small plastic cutting board and covered it with parchment/baking paper - so the cheese didn't stick.  You could also use a plate.

Don't use waxed paper, it will stick and be a mess!

Grate any cheese of your choice, sprinkle 5 piles (about 1 tbsp each) on baking sheet.

Sprinkle 1/4 tsp of Parmesan cheese on on each pile.

Shake a tiny amount of garlic salt on each pile. (Or any herb/spice mix you would like)

Place cutting board or plate with the cheese piles in microwave, for 1 minute. Let cool.
