Ingredients
  

For the Cheese Mixture
  • 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese Adds a sharp and creamy texture; feel free to swap with Monterey Jack or Colby for a milder taste.
  • 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Provides that gooey consistency; alternatives like provolone or Gouda work wonderfully too.
For the Pickles
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped dill pickles Brings a tangy crunch; if you prefer sweetness, try bread-and-butter pickles or kick it up a notch with jalapeños for heat.
Miscellaneous
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder Enhances savory flavor; optional for those who want a milder nuance.
  • 1 tablespoon breadcrumbs Adds an extra layer of crispiness; opt for gluten-free breadcrumbs to accommodate gluten-sensitive diets.
