Carnivore mozzarella sticks are a fun twist on the classic! Instead of traditional breading, you can use a meat-based coating. Here’s a simple way to make them:
Ingredients:
- Fresh mozzarella cheese sticks
- Ground meat (like beef, pork, or chicken)
- Spices (like garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika)
- Optional: shredded cheese for added flavor
Instructions:
- Prep the Cheese: Cut mozzarella into sticks if they aren’t pre-cut.
- Prepare the Meat Coating: In a bowl, mix ground meat with your chosen spices. You can also add some shredded cheese for extra flavor.
- Wrap the Cheese: Take a mozzarella stick and wrap it in the meat mixture, pressing firmly to ensure it adheres well.
- Chill: Place the wrapped sticks in the fridge for about 30 minutes to help the coating set.
- Cook: You can either bake them at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes or fry them in a pan with a little oil until the meat is cooked through and crispy.
- Serve: Enjoy your carnivore mozzarella sticks with a dipping sauce like marinara or ranch, if desired!
They’re a hearty, protein-packed snack that’s perfect for a carnivore diet!
