I just "rediscovered" my cache of recipes from Peter Neuman. A few are regular staples in my house. Peter Neuman is a legend on the Somersize boards. He was 17 and in culinary school when he lost over 135 pounds. I am going to share these with you as I know you will enjoy them. He even makes pork rinds palateable!

CHEESE PUFFS

Take pork rinds, butter, and cheese, then toss and bake. The result? A chip like snack filled with cheesy goodness. These resemble the classic cheese doodle in both taste and appearance.
Another perfect and insanely delicious alternative to popcorn while enjoying a night out at the movies. As they say at the movies, "sit back, relax, and enjoy!"
Serving Size: 1-3 people
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
One 80 gram bag of Pork Rinds (I use Old Dutch brand)
5 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (I use Kraft brand)

Directions: Preheat oven to 220 Degrees Fahrenheit.*** Place pork rinds in large bowl. Drizzle one spoonful of the melted butter over the pork rinds at a time, and mix. Continue this process until all the butter is evenly drizzled over the pork rinds. Place half of pork rinds in large plastic bag, and add 1/2 of the cheese. Shake until all the pork rinds are evenly coated in the cheese. Place cheese puffs on large cookie sheet in a single layer. Shake and coat remaining pork rinds with cheese and place on the cookie sheet in a single layer. Place cheese puffs in the oven and bake for 10 minutes, no longer. Store in an airtight container or Ziploc bag. It is a good idea to store these in the refrigerator until ready to eat because of the cheese. Take along in individual serving bags to the movies or a summer picnic for a great, crunchy snack Enjoy!
*** I find baking the cheese puffs helps to give them extra crispiness and helps to infuse the cheese flavor throughout the entire pork rind. However, this is optional and they will taste great without being baked. ***
