• 1/2 tsp. Salt

Directions

1. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté onions and peppers until softened. Set aside.

3. Add egg and crushed pork rinds to the cheese mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.

4. Roll dough into 2-inch balls and place between two sheets of wax paper. Press each ball flat into a disc.
