How to Prepare:

blend 3/4 bag bakenette pork rinds, 1 tbsp bacon bits, 1 tbsp parmaesan or romano cheese, 1 tsp garlic powder or chopped garlic, 1 tbsp onion flakes, salt, pepper, old bay, cayenne or chili powder, and crushed fried cabot garlic and herb cheddar cheese (you can use any cheese, but i reccomend this savory cheese from cabot, instructions below) in a food processor until you have a fine powder. dip tilapia (my favorite, but cod, sole, or scrod works just as well) fillets in an egg wash (beaten eggs) and then coat thoroughly with "breading." fry in a large iron frying pan in olive oil and butter (about 1 cm) until golden brown. this "breading" tastes just like bread crumbs only ten times better. fried cheese Simply slice your favorite cheese fairly thin, throw it on a hot griddle with some butter, and cook to desired browning level. these are delicious dipped in ranch dressing.
