Low Carb Jalapeño Chips Recipe

Ingredients

12 pickled jalapeño slices
Shredded Colby Jack cheese (or Mexican blend)
Sour cream, for dipping

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat dry the jalapeño slices with a paper towel (this helps them crisp up).
Add a small amount of shredded cheese to each cavity of a muffin pan.
Place one jalapeño slice on top of the cheese.
Cover with a little more shredded cheese.
Bake for 10 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.
Transfer chips to a paper towel to absorb extra grease and allow them to cool.
Serve with sour cream and enjoy!

Snacks like this are one of the ways I’ve stayed consistent with low carb for years—but there’s another tool I rely on daily, especially when cravings or low energy try to creep in.

When my body is fueled properly, staying on track feels easier.
