Zero Carb Cheez-its

I’m really weird and I know it. It’s just easier accepting the weirdness at this point. One weird thing about me? I can eat the same thing 60 days in a row, but on the 61st day, you bet your bottom dollar I won’t want anything to do with it! When I’m sticking to a diet, this can sometimes cause some issues. I can love and be obsessed with certain snacks and foods, and then out of the blue, not want anything to do with them and actually get nauseated from them. Weird, right?

Well because of this weirdness, I’m always on the hunt for new and different yummy snacks that I can have that fit with the Keto diet. Here is a recipe for homemade Cheez-its inspired by No Bun Please.

Regular Cheez-its are my favorite so I've only stuck to a salt seasoning, but I can't wait to try other spice combinations. I'm excited to try a jalapeno spice in order to try and replicate the spicy Cheez-its!
