Ingredients

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • 2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Line a baking sheet (or two) with parchment paper sheets.
  • Using a measuring spoon, drop 1 tbsp piles of cheddar cheese about 2 inches apart (the cheese will spread so don’t put them too close) on the baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle garlic powder on each, just a pinch.
  • Bake for 5-8 minutes (may vary, keep a close eye on them). Remove from oven and lift parchment paper and place on cooling racks.
  • Dab tops of crisps with a paper towel to remove some of the excess grease (this is optional but if you don’t do it, your crisps may be soggy – still yummy, but soggy – if you didn’t cook them long enough).
  • Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.

Pico De Gallo salsa, it won’t disappoint you will love it

Nancy Lee & Me - Pico De Gallo

Thank you Kevin for allowing us to share your Pico de gallo recipe. Look delicious.

Origin

Pico de gallo traces back to ancient Aztec cuisine and specifically from the Yucatan Peninsula, Sonora, Guanajuato, and Oaxaca regions of Mexico. It also goes by the name salsa bandera, which means flag salsa, because it depicts the green, white, and red colors of the Mexican national flag. This chunky salsa dish has a kick that brightens and freshens up any meal or snack table.

Easy Baked Burrito Casserole easy to make and really delicious.

Origin of Casseroles

A casserole is a kind of large, deep pan or bowl used for cooking a variety of dishes in the oven; it is also a category of foods cooked in such a vessel. To distinguish the two uses, the pan can be called a “casserole dish” or “casserole pan,” whereas the food is simply “a casserole.” The same pan is often used both for cooking and for serving.

Potato Salad – You will love this easy to prepare side dish

Nancy Lee and Me - Potato Salad

There are lots of ways to make potato salad but this is my favorite. Very simple. Great for bbq’s at home. Also great for potlucks.

Origin

Potato salad is widely believed to have originated in Germany, spreading largely throughout Europe, the United States, and later Asia. American version most likely originated from recipes brought to the U.S. by way of German and other European immigrants during the nineteenth century.

American-style is served cold or at room temperature. Ingredients often include mayonnaise or a comparable substitute (such as yogurt or sour cream), herbs, and raw vegetables (such as onion and celery).
