Stacy’s Cheese Petites
Make Crab Cakes Yummy and Tasty
I had a chance to try the new Stacy’s Cheese Petites. And they are yummy. The new flavors are Romano Garlic and Pepper, and Parmesan with Rosemary. Heading out on a road trip, I tucked both flavors in my bag for a snack on the road. They are the prefect bite-size for keeping your eyes on the road, staying safe and enjoying a snack. Luckily I saved enough of them to try with Olive Tapenade Hummus and Brie Cheese when I arrived at my destination.


After snacking on Stacy’s Cheese Petites – Parmesan with Rosemary, Doc Bill decided to use some of the small pieces to coat his crab cakes. The savory cheese and Rosemary flavors were a perfect way to enhance the sweet crab. It was hard to give up enough of the cheese crackers for him to coat the crab cakes, but I knew the crab cakes were going to be extra delicious by adding Stacy’s Cheese Petites – Parmesan with Rosemary in a unique and unexpected way.

I microwave my spaghetti squash. Poke it all over with a fork, cook 8 minutes. Then turn over and cook 8 more minutes. Viola! Thanks for the recipe, I’m going to try it tonight.
