LadyDonna Cheese slice crackers, burger buns, or taco shells Reviews Date of last review 8 Thu June 7, 2012 Recommended By Average Price Average Rating 100% of reviewers None indicated 9.8 Description: I tried the cheese taco shell recipes from this site and had poor results in a frypan. They stuck. Then I remembered a "mistake" my daughter made as a teen. She put a processed cheese slice on a greased (sprayed) plate in the microwave and cooked it. Hmmmm...I said, "I wonder?" and voila! It's perfect. Ingredients: one process cheese slice How To Prepare: Spray a small microwable glass plate. Place a cheese slice on it. I have a 1,000 Watt oven and cooked it on high for exactly 40 seconds. I think you'll be as impressed as I was! It steams and puffs and when you remove it it firms (or hardens...depending on how long you leave it in) At 40 sec it still remains pliable. After one minute it has brown areas and was much crisper..good for crackers. When you get it just right at all the various stages, you can fold it in half for taco filling etc etc. Re-spray the plate each time. I do 2 cheese slices for a great hamburger. I also tried 1/3 c grated cheddar and it worked beautifully too!Quick and easy and no hassle! Carbs per serving - include all nutritional information if known: usually about 1 carb. Check pkg label Preparation Time: less than a minute Effort (Easy, Average, Difficult): Easy ladydonna   Posts: 0 see this user's products

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): quick and tasty Cons: I've heard of this many times, but never tried it until the other day. I put the cheese slice on parchment paper and then microwaved it, then sprinkled it with a tiny pinch of cayenne pepper. It was like a spicy cheez-it cracker! Very satisfying if you need a little cracker action!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Super Easy Cons: As soon as I read this I ran into the kitchen to give it a try. I cooked this long enough to be a "taco shell." It was perfect! Simple, inexpensive, tasty and induction friendly. I filled my shells with shredded chicken and a Tablespoon of salsa.
