I love Premier Shakes too...I've been living off those since I had my surgery 9 weeks ago. :)

I put 17 slices (1 serving) on a paper towel in the microwave and cook for 1.5 minutes.  I like them crunchy, if you want a little chewy then do less.  I usually make them before I leave for work and put in a plastic bag but don't close it until they are cooled off.  They make for a crispy salty snack.  I think it is 9 grams of protein, 4 grams of fat and 70 calories.
