Hi everyone,
i've made these cheese crisps also in the oven and i'm definitely going to try the microwave version. When i made them in the oven, before i baked them, i sprinkled various seasonings on them. Garlic powder is wonderful on mozzarella or monterey jack. i have used Mrs. Dash, dill, oregano, basil, etc. i've even sprinkled a little curry powder on them. You can let your imagination run wild with seasonings. They are a wonderful, filling snack.
Another tip i got from a friend: instead of standing over a hot skillet, getting spattered by bacon grease, i now put bacon slices on a cookie sheet and bake them at about 325 for 10 minutes or so, depending on how crispy you want your bacon. Yes, eventually i'll have to clean my oven. You have to pour off the grease (and i generally pat the bacon with paper towels to remove excess grease). But it's a good way to make a bigger batch of bacon ahead of time. Then you can just nuke it or crumble it in an omlet or other dishes.
Take care and Have fun!
