Homemade Keto Crisps - Regular & Hot

-
When you are on Keto, we need to great swaps so that we can keep on track. I loooove chips and dip, or chips and salsa, or well just chips. But chips will never fit into my macros, or be Keto compliant. So i tried some brands at the store, and I found that the cheese flavor was too strong. They were crispy though which is perfect for that crunch you need. I found a way to make them not so strong, and it could probably save some "dough" (keto joke). Let's get to the recipe!!



Regular Crisp Ingredients
Choose on of the following shredded cheese combo:
1 Cup Sharp Cheddar, 1/2 Cup Sharp Cheddar & 1/2 Cup Colby Jack, or 1 Cup Colby Jack
Add the following:
3/4 teaspoon of taco seasoning (check the ingredients or make your own - some companies like to hide sugar in this seasoning)
1 tablespoon of lime or lemon juice

Recipe Steps

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 F.
  2. Mix the ingredients in a bowl. 
  3. Place your parchment paper on a baking pan, and with a spoon make small clumps of the mixture. Leave some room around each clump as the crisps will expand. 
  4. Place in oven and bake for 13-14 minutes depending on how crisp you would like them. 
  5. Remove from oven, and allow to cool about 10 minutes. Remove from parchment paper. 
Notes 
  • Slice up you a jalapeno to add some kick. 
  • Instead of making small clumps, pour the mixture and flatten it out a little. Bake and cut into squares.

Keto Costco Ultimate Shopping List

I love Costco for Keto friendly foods! Bulk size and alot of the time you pay regular sized prices! It may be a big bill up front, but in the long run you will save. I would say that’s a win-win! This is going to be an extensive list, but because products are ever changing and sometimes available for certain times, all of these may not be there when you go. Some pictures also have prices, which may be different at your store! Here is a picture of my haul my patient husband and I did! Total spent was $100! Before we get started you will need to know what type of Keto you follow. Check out this link:  What type of Keto are you?  These items will all fit under the Dirty Keto definition, but not all will fit under Strict Keto. If you are Strict Keto please check your labels in regards to the ingredients so that you only buy for the plan you are on. First I am going to list my top 11 Costco must haves:  Egg Thins!! These are only 8 calories each! Use them as torti...

Fathead Dough Pastries!

Ready for a pastry that you will love? This recipe will have 3 variations, which I hope will also inspire you to create your own combination. We are first going to make a basic fat head dough, and create a filling! The top left is my peach / cream cheese pastry, I love peach and have been missing the flavor of it. The top right, which is hands down the best of the 3 is strawberry / cream cheese! I could eat this every meal of every day! Lastly the bottom of the bunch, was also my least favorite, I used Lily's Chocolate mixed with cream cheese. It was ... well it was ok. I rather spend my macros on the other two. But I thought I would still share in case you have a better idea and would like to make this better!! *******Disclaimer ******* if you are strict keto (ingredients are clean and you don't eat naughty things), then the fillings, except for the chocolate one will not work for you. You will, however, be able to use the the strawberry filling if you use store bou...
