Description
A delicious and healthy snack, these cheesy pickle bombs combine the tangy crunch of pickles with melted cheese for a low-carb treat.
Ingredients
- 8 large dill pickles, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pat dry the pickle slices with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- In a bowl, mix shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika until well combined.
- Spoon a small amount of the cheese mixture onto each pickle slice.
- Place on the baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Sprinkle with fresh chives before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Use thick-cut pickles to hold the cheese better.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
