We sometimes wonder where the keto diet would be without cheese. Yes, cheese is one guilty pleasure that you don't have to give up simply because you're trying to consume less carbs and sweets. Cheese comes in a variety of flavors and textures, and the majority of them are heavy in fat and protein. Sure, it might be high in calories and sodium, but whether or not a cheese is "healthy for you" depends entirely on the variety. For example, Pecorino-Romano, a hard salty Italian sheep's-milk cheese included in this recipe, has been dubbed the "champagne of cheese" and has been linked to numerous health advantages. It contains conjugated linoleic acid, which has been related to a reduced BMI and a lower risk of diabetes. Sheep's milk cheeses have more calcium than cow's milk cheeses.
However, if you have any other hard or semi-hard cheese (such as cheddar or parmesan) in your fridge, it will also work for these crisps. Not only is this a considerably better option to store-bought junk food, but it's also incredibly simple to make and customize. Do you want to experiment with a different flavor profile? Replace the thyme with rosemary, ground paprika, or even a dash of cayenne pepper. Trust us when we say that after you've tried these, you'll be making them for years to come.
