Monterey Cheese Crisps

4.5(9)

Quick low-carb snack. I find that these work better than some similar recipes that use shredded cheese. The spices on these really 'pop' too - Yum!!!! I've also used Colby-Jack cheese, and it works great.

01Preheat oven to 400*.

07These store well in an airtight container.
