Ketogenic recipes for low-carb diets are what we are testing out these days although we tend to change them to suit my wife’s tastes.

She is a huge fan of spices but since eating bacon is a big deal on the Atkins low-carb diet she no longer uses salt at all.

Recipes with bacon always turn out good no matter what and that’s the truth.

Bacon can do no wrong and pretty much will match up with just about anything.

I’ll admit these Mozzarella Bacon Bomb Lettuce Wraps really were hard for me to stop eating even though they weren’t for me.

Bacon Bomb Keto Nutrition

In total one of these Mozzarella Bacon Bomb, Lettuce Wraps come in at around 1.50g net carbs each according to the Atkins Carb Counter.

Bacon and cheese are a must if you’ve never tried them fried together.

Some people call these bacon cheese keto sticks but after we created this recipe we knew that they needed a more explosive yummy name.

In 3 months my wife is now down about 30lbs which is great because she wanted to get rid of the excess weight from after having our son.

She is now down to her pre-baby weight but still wants to lose a bit more because she was always working out towards her fitness goals by running 5K a day.

Mozzarella Bacon Bomb Tips

Keto Mozzarella Bacon Bomb DippersThe mozzarella once fried becomes so cheesy in the middle and pairs perfect with thick cut bacon which is rolled around the cheese stick then secured with a toothpick.

It’s imperative that you put the Mozzarella Bacon Bombs in the freezer for about one hour.

What you will achieve is a sold dipper but it will help with the frying process.

If you were to fry these Mozzarella Bacon Bombs without freezing them first your bacon will not cook and your mozzarella will just ooze out everywhere.

Total fail!

Once frozen solid heat up a tablespoon of butter, coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil and place your frozen Mozzarella Bacon Bombs in the pan.

Cook evenly on all sides until the bacon is crispy and the mozzarella is nice and cheesy looking.

Remove from the frying pan and sit each Mozzarella Bacon Bomb on some paper towel to remove excess grease.

To enjoy these delightful finger foods simply remove the toothpick and roll in a med-large lettuce leaf, then dip.

You can either buy your ranch dressing or make homemade ranch dressing as we did.

Dinner or snacks with bacon makes everything better.
