I don’t follow KETO specifically but I try to substitute proteins for carbs whenever I can. My body seems to function better that way. And I stay fuller longer. I found this recipe a couple months back and saved it to my “healthy recipes to try” Pinterest board.
I have found many pins using this same recipe so I have no way to credit the original recipe creator but I will leave the original pin as I found it for proper credit to that pinner.
Here is the original PIN I found next to my finished product:
My Attempt
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 egg
- Garlic salt sprinkled on top before baking
I used the convection setting on my oven which puts it at 375°.
They only needed 15 minutes to cook. Any longer might have made them too crispy.
PROS:
- Easy to make
- Easy to double or triple recipe to make more
- Very fast prep time
- I could successfully pretend this was bread
- Very versatile
CONS:
- Could be bland without some spice for flavoring which is why I sprinkled garlic salt on it.
- Needs to be eaten soon after it’s made. Doesn’t age well.
In the future, I plan to use this recipe to make:
- Bagels
- Breakfast sandwiches
- Mini pizzas
- Cheese sticks
