SOUTH BEACH PARMESAN CRACKERS
There are tons of things that are so much better with bread or crackers. But on South Beach, these are clearly off limits on Phase One. I discoved Parmesan Crackers at my Roche Bros. by "The Kitchen Table Bakers", however they are a little pricey. Instead I came up with this recipe to make at home. I also season them with whatever might fit my meal (exp Italian seasonings, diced garlic, tex-mex seasonings and whatever else you can come up with) Be creative! I use them anywhere I would use crackers: with tuna fish, dips, with cold cuts etc. Enjoy! (Note, they will be salty...parmesan is a salty cheese. If you don't like parmesan as a cheese, these aren't for you)

ROSEMARY-PARMESAN CRACKERS
This is a delicious, fast, and easy way to make a great appetizer anytime because you can make the dough up to 2 days ahead. I just keep some in the fridge. These crackers are fabulous with wine and great as a side for soup. The recipe was originally from a Williams-Sonoma handout.

Steps:
- In a food processor, combine dry ingredients. Add the butter and pulse 10 times until it looks like coarse meal. Add cheese and pulse a couple times. Turn on the motor and add the cream in a slow steady stream. The dough will form into a ball. Take the dough out and roll it into a log a couple of inches in diameter. Wrap it in plastic and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 2 days.
- Heat oven to 325°F; slice dough into 1/8" slices; bake on cookie sheet, covered in parchment paper, for about 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and eat.
- Variation: Cheddar-Cayenne; increase flour to 1 cup; substitute cheddar for Parmigiano-Reggiano and 1/4 tsp cayenne for rosemary.
- Black Pepper-Lemon: increase flour to 1 cup; substitute 1 1/4 tsp cracked pepper for ground pepper and add zest of 2 lemons; substitute asiago cheese for P-R cheese and reduce cream to 3 TBS.
