Pickle In A Blanket Is The Newest TikTok Food Trend
I LOVE pickles! I’ll eat em plain, on sandwiches, and in salads. Once I even made Dill Pickle Cupcakes for Phil and I to try. They weren’t that bad! Now there’s a new pickle dish taking over TikTok and I must try it! I’ve eaten cheese and pickles as a snack, but not in this manner.
According to Bon Appetit, ‘Pickle in a Blanket’ is a guilty pleasure snack that folks are loving on TikTok. And it’s quite easy to make! All ya need is a pickle spear, a slice of your favorite cheese, a frying pan and some cooking spray.
Claire Snyder, @clurmurr on TikTok, posted a video last month and it’s gone viral. She demonstrates how to make the easy snack. You put a bit of cooking spray in a pan, get it hot, place a slice of cheese in the pan, and as the edges brown, you put a pickle spear in the middle of the cheese. You then fold the cheese sides over the pickle, making a pickle burrito if you will. Then you eat it! That’s it.
People on TikTok are now making it with different types of cheese. Snyder used a slice of provolone in her video, but others are trying the snack with cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, and Gruyere. If you’re a fan of a dipping sauce (Ranch for instance) you can add that to the recipe.
If you’re someone that’s trying to cut carbs or is on the Keto diet, this may be the perfect snack for you. I love pickles and cheese combo so much that I’ll add pickles to a grilled cheese and to a patty melt. This is kind of like a grilled cheese, just no bread.
See the video below to see how the ‘Pickle in a Blanket’ is made. Pretty easy!
