I made a really yummy herbed keifer cheese yesterday
(Mrs. Dash's garlic/herb blend and mineral salt - think Boursin, but healthier)

As I was chowing down on this with my celery, it dawned on me, I have NO clue what the carb count of the cheese is. Really, I'm clueless.

Figure at one carb an ounce like "normal" cheese????

As a rule I don't count the carbs in my kefier unless I've made a smoothie.

ideas????

One carb per oz is how I count it, April. That's the count for whole milk ricotta, which seems to be about the same deal as kefir cheese, in terms of milk solids. I love it with herbs, too!
