CREAM CHEESE:

CHEDDAR CHEESE:

• Sharp cheddar cheese gives food a pleasant sharpness and richness of flavor. You can use Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or a cheese combination in its place depending on the taste.

BACON:

• We have to use sugar-free bacon to keep the meal keto-friendly. Crispy cooking creates a wonderful tactile contrast.

HERBS:

• You can substitute dill, basil, or thyme for the parsley and chives depending on what you have on hand, which provide freshness & a subtle oniony taste.

GARLIC POWDER:

• Garlic powder gives the food delicate savory undertones without taking center stage We can taste & adjust the seasoning according to your preference.

SALT AND PEPPER:
