    I’ve made the cottage cheese chips with generic cottage cheese and it worked great! I just use a piece of parchment paper on the turntable of my microwave and spread out about 1/2 a cup thinly. It takes about 5 minutes for it to brown enough, then I let cool and break into pieces.

    A nice important quick tip while using the microwave continuously (like the cottage crackers) ,after the second batch,wipe off the inside of the microwave with a towel ,as the cooking of any food with high water content like cheese will leave a good amount of moisture trapped inside the microwave ,which will either delay cooking time or food will be less crunchy although the same cooking time is used throughout.thanks for uploading ♥️♥️.

    I just used my round Silicone mat that I had purchased to make the microwave tortillas by Serious Keto. I did use a little bit of spray. You were correct about needing to experiment. I used the Walmart Equate brand and it was the Small Curd. I made large chips because I don’t have your patience to make small chips. I will now always keep Cottage Cheese in my refrigerator. I can’t tell you how happy I am to finally have a use for those Silicone mats since I never made those tortillas. Thank you ladies.😘❤️😘😂

    Hi Emily and Sarah😀, I learned from a married Keto RUclips couple a couple of years ago that you can take one of those protein bars and cut it up into four squares (I’ve done them whole even) and put them in your Air Fryer @350, middle rack (I have air fry oven), 3 to 4 minutes depending on your air fryer. They turn out like a cookie right out of the oven. Warm cookie and soft on the inside. Imo they taste much better than from a microwave.

    • @kathyfanchi2557
      @kathyfanchi2557 Год назад +3

      I do this method too, only cut the bar into 8 pieces for bite sized “cookies” and if they get hard because I usually do 2 bars at a time, just zap for 6-8 seconds and it softens them up again. Great grab and go treat.

    Hey guys! I just tried the cottage cheese chips. Really really good! I used large curd 4%fat cottage cheese and added bagel seasoning and cooked them on 80% power. I have a 900 watt microwave. Took a few minutes and just when I thought it wasn’t going to work- it did! They melted all together into a circular mass so I just broke them apart like the other lady. Thanks for such a fun and easy and tasty recipe!

    The uneven cooking happens in all microwaves. That’s why the turntable is now standard on microwave ovens. Turning doesn’t help the center spot which is obviously a hot spot in your oven.

    Keto Twinzies…😳😳😳 ( that’s 3 WOWS!) I just saw your video and I just so happened to have the TJ cottage cheese AND those individual parchment paper pieces on hand.
    So I IMMEDIATELY ( if not sooner) ran to my fridge to make the cottage cheese chips!
    Needless to say I started off with 5 little individual scoops of cottage cheese that all sort of melted together into 1 giant chip.
    I had to cook them a little over 3 minutes till all the liquid ( shall I say moisture 😜) disappeared and it looked slightly light brown.
    I let cool for about 20 seconds and then peeled off parchment paper then cooling rack for about 1 minute.
    I cannot explain how DELICIOUS and crispy and satisfying they were!
    I even had the Litehouse jalapeño ranch but actually the chips were Perfect on their own!
    Another KT WINNER!!!!

I didn't do any spices other than salt and pepper, but the next round I'll add in garlic powder too. I didn't get Trader Joe's brand, I got Wegman's organic small curd because sometimes additives hurt my stomach. That brand worked great!!

    I love salad, but our high school had dressings in huge pump containers and we could get all we wanted anytime, salad or not. I used to get carrot sticks and ranch dressing almost every day. I still love carrots with ranch. But I HATE bottled ranch. For me, it has to be the buttermilk ranch made with buttermilk, mayo, and powder. My favorite is the kind schools and restaurants use, which I believe is usually Lawry’s brand or maybe CF Sauer, but home cooks can’t easily get that, so the Hidden Valley Ranch powder is what I use at home.

    So I did look at the ingredient's of trader joes small curd cottage cheese and compared it to other brands. Daisy btw has no stabilizers. trader joes has Nonfat Milk, Locust Bean Gum, Agar for stabilizers. I looked at several other brands and while they had stabilizers some including the Locust Bean Gum none of the others included Agar. This leads me to believe that the key component is the Agar. Agar is made from seaweed and causes things to gel, the gel is stable until 85°C or 185° F this is more than twice as high a temperature to other gelling agents. I think this is the key ingredient that is in trader joes cottage cheese that allows this to work. this also makes me wonder if the Agar could be added to your mozzarella cheese before making keto fathead dough to make it more stable when making things with it since it might help it keep it's shape at slightly higher heats.

      Great value brand works great either 2% or 4%. Lucerne (Safeway/Albertsons store brand) also works great 2%/4% and has 4 carbs per half cup instead of 5. But don't ever buy the 1% lucerne brand. It actually has SEVEN carbs per half cup. I already made that mistake and didn't notice until after i had eaten a serving of it.

    This is crazy how easy and delicious these little crispy morsels are. I had some cottage cheese that was going to go bad and remembered this video. I was VERY skeptical and I’m not a huge cottage cheese fan. You would NEVER guess these were made from cottage cheese. The possibility of flavors are endless. I mixed two batches with different spices and I found the sweet spot at 2min 30 sec on normal temp. It did take a minute because you can only make a small batch at a time and I had 2 cups of cottage cheese, but oh man was it worth it. I want to experiment with doing it in the oven and making more at a time. Amazing recipe, thanks so much for coming back and revisiting this. It’s a keeper for sure.

I tried the spice combination that you suggested and it was great, but I would like to do a couple of more riffs on that, one more plain and maybe something else to go with say, Indian or Asian dishes.

    You two are SO fun to watch and bring us so many new ideas! Have you ever tried plain pepperoni chips? Not my original idea, but I can't remember where I read it. I put as many as I can fit (12-16?), on a paper towel on a plate (very greasy), and microwave for 50-60 seconds in my microwave. As you recommend, stay nearby watching them. The microwave is always a bit smokey when I open it, but they've never caught on fire, yet, haha! The paper towel on the bottom absorbs most of the grease, but I do also blot the grease off the tops. They are so crispy and delicious. I usually eat them plain, but I sometimes dip them in a little bit of plain sour cream or marinara sauce. I also use them as croutons on my pizza salad (greens, mozz pearls, sliced black olives, green onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, pepperoncini...whatever you like on your pizza, & Kraft sun-dried tomato Italian salad dressing, sure wish I could duplicate their recipe, the flavor is perfect for this salad). Thanks so much for entertaining and educating us! I always look forward to your new cooking videos and your keto lessons learned.

Also, when reheating most anything, use the weight defrost button and choose a high setting like 7 or 8 minutes, but always spread out the food and leave a hole in the middle of any plate you cook or re- heat in the microwave. You guys ROCK, BTW!
    You two have been my inspiration and my mentors❤️❤️

      So, what if you're making a mug of something...put in the center? Or off-center? 🤔

      @Critter 400 of center on the outside. If you are trying to make more than one thing at a time, elevate one plate by adding a coffee mug (still on the outside), and then the rest of it on bottom on the outside of the other side.

    Keto connect did the quest bar cookies a few years ago, they did theirs in the oven, and they were softer and took longer (waiting for pre-heat) - I think i like your version better.
    Love the Willard thing❣

    I used silicone muffin cups for the cottage cheese chips! It gave them a cheese puff texture. Very good

    Diabetic here who seesaws between good girl and bad girl diet. Loved the cottage cheese chips. Could not make it work on skillet either. Made individual chips in/on microwave Silpat mat too. Much better with cottage cheese with additives. Family dollar Clover Valley worked best for me. No Trader Joe’s in my area. Power at 6 and time 4 min 30 sec. Also love whipped cottage cheese with vanilla, cinnamon and dates (chilled) but like organic brand for that.

    Hi ladies! Tried these today with Good Culture brand cottage cheese. Worked fabulously. I added Trader Joe's Onion Salt mix = sour cream and onion! I noticed the first 4 - 5 minutes on power 5 seemed to evaporate the moisture then another minute on regular power did the browning. Thanks so much!

    • @tealrustsage24
      @tealrustsage24 Год назад +1

      @@pinehillart I liked it. I made 2 batches! I probably used around 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp for one batch of chips. Could add a bit more if you really want it more intense. But I am happy with the results.

  • @susanrice9129

    Placing the food on the edge of the rotating plate means it evenly moves throughout the hot and cold areas, and evenly distributes heat throughout. The middle chip will burn otherwise.

    Sarah’s a genius. That’s how microwaves work. When you cook in them, put things in a circle, not like you would on a cookie sheet for a regular oven. Great job! Love your experiments!! ❤

    I used 2 percent great value small curd cottage cheese and it worked great. I did not put any in the center just in a circle or kind of circle around the edges of the parchment paper. Ended up taking 6 or 7 minutes on 50% power but I don't know what wattage the microwave is.
    Also tried a couple variations. Things i normally like stirred into cottage cheese:
    Homemade keto strawberry jam
    Homemade keto sriracha
    Vinegar and salt
    All worked well. Strawberry one browned faster and darker than the rest but was good with just a hint of strawberry.
    If you use the Lucerne (Safeway& Albertsons) brand with 6 grams of cottage cheese in each teaspoon, 10 chips is 2 carbs. Safeway brand has 4 carbs per cup instead of 5 like most brands including great value.

    Someone might have commented this already but the microwave plate spins so that the "heat waves" from the microwave will get to the food from different angles to heat the food evenly through out. You are not supposed to put anything in the middle like plates or bowls because it will just spin but not move around the microwave therefore all the heat gets concentrated into the middle with out having an opportunity to heat other parts of the food or plate or whatever is in there. You got the burning in the middle because the heat concentrated in the middle with out any movement around. I hope that makes sense. Start putting all food on the sides of the plate for even heat distribution.

  • @cathkat3993
    @cathkat3993 Год назад

    Microwave ovens cook differently than a regular oven. As you noticed the one in the center tends to burn. It is better to place your items in a circle around the edge of the plate for more even cooking.

    Can’t wait to get some cottage cheese and try these chips! I make the “cookies” by cutting the Quest bar (have tried numerous flavors with yummy success) into 8 pieces and air fry for 4 minutes. If the leftovers get hard, I just zap for 6-8 seconds and they soften up again. Great quick dessert/snack.
