LOW CARB

Wanting to turn back time to spring again, and craving something crunch & low carb, I decided it was time to try making zucchini chips.... I sliced them thinly, the tosses them with olive oil, Himalayan sea salt & some grated Parmesan. Then I placed them side by side on a parchment lined cookie sheet... depending on your oven, try them at 350 for 30-45 mins... I turned them once, half way through. 

Tammy's Keto-fied Peppernuts

We are now not only gluten free but also low carb... But Christmas without Nana's Peppernuts ? Gasp ! So I have successfully come up with a keto-fied cookie that is at least reminiscent in flavor, but sadly not in texture, of my Nana's sought after peppernuts. A good cookie, none the less ! Enjoy !
