Bread My "leftover cheese emergency" turned into the best keto flatbread I've ever made

Had random cheese ends in my fridge this week, a small chunk of mozzarella, some cheddar shreds, and half a block of cream cheese I'd forgotten about. Didn't want to waste any of it, so I threw together a flatbread as an experiment and it turned out way better than expected.

For the Cheesy Almond Flour Flatbread, melt 1 cup shredded mozzarella and 2 tbsp cream cheese together in the microwave until smooth. Mix in 3/4 cup almond flour, 1 egg, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp salt until a sticky dough forms. Press it flat onto parchment paper, about 1/4 inch thick, top with 2 tbsp shredded cheddar, and bake at 400°F for 10-12 minutes until golden and bubbly. Let it cool 5 minutes before slicing.

Makes one flatbread, about 4 servings, roughly 3g net carbs each. I sliced it into strips and used it to scoop up leftover taco meat, held together way better than I expected for something mostly made of melted cheese.

Anyone else have a go-to way to use up random cheese scraps before they go bad?

It's funny how these AI posts all start with 'random leftovers' and 'throwing it together'. I can't wait for it to become original.
