What is a Fat Bomb?
A Fat Bomb is similar to an energy ball or bar, which tends to be based around high carb and sugar-heavy ingredients like dates and oats. Fat bombs instead have high-fat, low-carb additions such as coconut oil, peanut butter, cream cheese or bacon.
Fats take longer to break down in the digestive tract, keeping our blood sugar levels stable and helping us to feel fuller for longer. Despite their name, these high fat snacks could actually be very beneficial to your diet plan.

How Do You make a Jalapeno Popper Fat Bomb?
Make these Delicious Keto Bacon Jalapeno Fat Bombs in 2 easy steps:
Step 1: Start by frying the bacon until crispy, then set it aside to cool. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese with the diced up jalapenos, shredded cheddar cheese, 1 Tbsp of the chopped parsley and garlic powder. Mix until very well combined.
Step 2: Chop up the cooked bacon and remaining parsley, then put it in a small bowl. Make 12, small balls with the jalapeno and cream cheese mixture. Then roll the jalapeno cheese balls in the bacon and parsley.
CAN I FREEZE JALAPENO FAT BOMBS?

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.
While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

RECIPE NOTES:
- Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
- You can use any kind of flavourful cheese you prefer.
- Removing the seeds from the Jalapeños makes them considerably less spicy. If you like your fat bombs spicy, try leaving some of the seeds in and or adding a tsp or 2 of hot sauce before mixing.
- Pickled Jalapeños can be used instead of the fresh jalapeños. They are softer and have less of a raw pepper texture.
- If you don’t eat bacon, you can roll your fat bombs in grated cheese or parmesan cheese and herbs or in crushed nuts. Leaving the naked is also a great option.
- I washed my hands between each ball. This helped keep the bacon nice and clean and crispy.
