I Thought I Invented These!

I saw one of the chefs on TV making these Parmesan cheese crisps the other day, and I thought they must be copying me since I made this treat the other day mostly by accident. I had a little grated cheese leftover and I discovered that microwaving grated Parmesan cheese on a paper plate for about 30 to 40 seconds yields the most delicious snack crisp for the cook.

The TV chef baked them in an oven, then served them on a salad. Since then, I must have seen dozens of the chefs doing this with cheese. Where have these been all my life?


It just lifts right up off the plate. You have to use freshly grated cheese I think. Trader Joe's had pre-packaged very thinly sliced Parmesan cheese the other day. I also tried that just broken into pieces and it worked well also. You just don't get the pretty lacy edges...

Try It!
