Hi! I’m Jenna
Welcome to my florida kitchen! I’m a self-taught home cook who loves everything with carbs. My main goal here is to share creative recipes that are easy to follow and absolutely delicious!
How to make these pretzel bites:
For the Pretzel Bites I cut one can of biscuit dough into thirty two pieces and rolled them into balls. After boiling 4-5 balls I put them on a cookie sheet and repeat. I then brushed the Pretzel Bites with egg and topped it with sea salt.
For my Cheese Dip I melted two tbsp of butter over medium heat and whisked in two tbsp of flour and one cup of milk. I then cooked it for one minute.
Then I added four oz of velveeta cheese ( Make sure to whisk it until the sauce is smooth) Lastly I added a pinch of salt, pepper and cayenne

Notes:
Salt: I have been using Celtic Sea Salt in EVERYTHING. I completely cut table salt out of my kitchen all together. I was introduced to Celtic Sea Salt when I was listening to a podcast, House of Kim with Kim Zolciak- Salt of The Earth (Rel. 9/25/2019) It has so many benefits, you can learn more about it from listening to the podcast linked or the Celtic Sea Salt website.
