Ingredients
-
1 1/4 cups tapioca flour
2 cups (8 oz bag) shredded cheese (your favorite kind--nutrition info is for reduced fat Mexican blend)
1.5 tsp baking powder
2 large eggs
1/4 cup oil (or melted butter if you want it rich)
2 tsp chives (chopped fresh or dried)
2 tsp oregano or rosemary (other herbs might work well too--dill is good with cheddar)
Directions

Mix flour, baking powder and herbs. Stir in shredded cheese until it's coated.
Beat eggs with oil in a small bowl, then pour into dry ingredients and combine with a spoon.
