Prep the zucchini: Start by grating your zucchini and tossing it into a bowl with the salt. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to draw out some moisture. Once it’s ready, squeeze out any excess water with a cheesecloth or a trusty kitchen towel—this step is essential for crispy fritters! 2. Make the batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine your squeezed zucchini with the eggs, almond flour, mozzarella, cheddar, chopped bacon, parsley, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well incorporated and looks like a delicious, cheesy batter. 3. Form fritters: Grab about 1/4 cup of the mixture for each fritter and shape them into patties. Don’t worry about perfection – a little rustic charm is what we’re going for! 4. Fry ‘em up: Heat some olive oil or avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add your fritters and fry for about 3–4 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown, crispy, and cooked through. You’ll love that sizzle! 5. Serve it up: Stack those fritters high on a plate and top with a dollop of sour cream, Greek yogurt, or garlic aioli. Don’t forget to sprinkle some extra herbs on top for that fresh finish. Enjoy while they're warm! Give these fritters a try, and elevate your breakfast game! #BreakfastGoals #ZucchiniLovers #HealthyEating #SavoryFritters #BrunchTime

Get ready for a cheesy delight! These crispy, gluten-free Mozzarella Cheese Sticks are perfect for a snack or party appetizer. Ingredients: - 6 Mozzarella Sticks - 1/2 cup grated dry Parmesan cheese - 1 1/2 cups fried pork rinds - 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend - 1 egg - 2 tsps water Directions: 1. Start by cutting each mozzarella stick in half cross-wise and set them aside for now. 2. In a small shallow dish, combine the egg and water, then whisk them together until well blended. 3. Take your fried pork rinds and crush them using a rolling pin or blend them in a blender until you have about 1/2 cup of crumbly goodness. 4. In another shallow baking pan, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, crushed pork rinds, and Italian seasoning. 5. Now, it’s time to coat the mozzarella sticks! Dip each stick into the egg wash, making sure it’s fully coated, then roll it in the crumb mixture. For an extra crispy coating, repeat this step once more. 6. Place the coated mozzarella sticks on a plate or tray that fits in the freezer. Freeze them for about 2 hours to get that perfect texture. 7. Once they’re frozen, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly to prevent sticking. 8. Take the mozzarella sticks straight from the freezer and place them on the prepared pan. If you want, give them a light spray with olive oil for some extra flavor. 9. Bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, until the coating is golden brown and the cheese inside is warm and melty. 10. Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce for dipping, if desired. Enjoy the cheesy goodness!
