How to make Keto Mozzarella Stick Zucchini Boats
To make these Keto Mozzarella Stick Zucchini Boats, you start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Slice the zucchinis in half lengthwise and use a spoon to carefully scoop out the flesh. Then in a small bowl mix the parmesan cheese with coconut flour, salt and garlic powder.
Place the zucchinis skin side down onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Brush the tops of the zucchinis with oil, then lightly sprinkle them with some of the parmesan cheese mixture. Bake for about 12 minutes. Then broil 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Turn the oven back down to 400 degrees F. In a medium sized bowl, beat the egg then dip the mozzarella cheese stings into it. Place a cheese string onto each of the zucchini boats. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese mixture over the cheese strings, then drizzle the tops with a little olive oil. Bake for another 8 – 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the tops have browned.
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.
