PEPPERONI & CHEESE CRISPS - KETO

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese in flat piles with a little room between them, about 4-6 piles a time depending on the size of your skillet. Cook for about one minute.
• When the cheese starts to bubble, add a slice of pepperoni on top of each pile of cheese. Cook for another minute or so, until the cheese begins to brown and get crispy on the edges.
• Use a spatula to flip each one, pepperoni side down. Cook for around 30 seconds, then transfer to a plate, pepperoni side up, and serve with tomato sauce for dipping. Repeat until you've cooked them all!

MICROWAVE PEPPERONI CHIPS

Steps:

• Line a Microwave-Safe Plate with several sheets of papertowel. Place the pepperoni slices in a single layer.
• Microwave for 30 - 60 seconds (depending on the wattage of your microwave). The pepperoni slices should be nice and crispy and most of the grease absorbed on the papertowels.
• If any in the center are not crispy looking and still feel soft, microwave more in 15 second increments.
• Salt if desired.

KETO-FRIENDLY PEPPERONI PIZZA CHEESE CRISPS
