Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

LOVE these cheesy bits for an appetizer. They go great while you are sipping your wine.

This is not a completely original Plan Z recipe. I saw a version very similar to this on line and I just adjusted it to suit my tastes. The BEST low carb bites you could ask for. My guests raved! The person who designed this recipe didn’t take credit so I guess that person will remain anonymous but I am very grateful.

Serves: Makes about 18

Ingredients:

  • 6 oz of cream cheese softened
  • 2 cups of grated cheddar (in this recipe it will be worth it to buy a good block of cheddar and grate it yourself)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • ¼ t of chili powder (or to taste)
  • ½ cup of super fine ground almond flour
  • butter or olive oil cooking spray
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Then, in a medium bowl add your ingredients. Thoroughly mix with a spoon or spatula. Drop by spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet. Bake 10 – 15 minutes or until light brown. Keep an eye on them so they don’t burn. They will be about 1/4″ thick and moist. Carefully remove them from the cookie sheet and serve warm or at room temperature.

If you want them to taste like the biscuits at Red Lobster, add a half teaspoon of garlic powder.

I can see myself making these with a combo of cheddar and blue cheese…

Or Gruyere…

Or Mozzarella and Parmesan combined. All would be very yummy!

If you want to make a stiffer cracker, squish the spoonfuls down gently with the bottom of a glass to flatten them before you bake them. Then keep a close eye as they bake. They will cool to a stiffer consistency and taste a lot like Cheeze Its.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Roasted Prime Rib

When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!

Zola-fied Berghoff Spinach

The Berghoff is a famous Chicago restaurant. Their creamed spinach is an institution in itself. This is my ZReduction version.

Chive Butter Biscuits

This is a combination of a few recipes I found. Love the fact that these are low carb and tasty!

Dauphinoise Potatoes (aka Potato Gratin)

This is a wonderful potato casserole from the southeast part of France. Works great on a buffet too if you like room temp potatoes or have a chafing dish. For the LOWEST glycemic index, make this…
