Tdl6152: I made deepfried mozzarella sticks turned out good

Tdl6152: just freeze the sticks for an hour or so and bread with eggs and

pork rind or parmesan

Tdl6152: the trick is only to freeze the sticks so they do not melt too

fast when deepfrying

DBauer7997: Did you do the cream cheese/chipped beef thing, Magic?

DBauer7997: Take a package of creamed cheese, softened, and a package of

chipped beef, cut into little

DBauer7997: pieces. Add some sliced green onion and a little

Worcestershire sauce (just a little) and

DBauer7997: mix. Yum!

DBauer7997: Try it on a WASA or rolled in a low carb roll. It's addicting.
