Keto Appetizers

1 avocado

salt and pepper to taste

The easiest way to boil eggs is actually to steam them. Especially if utilizing fresh eggs. Steam for about 15 minutes, then allow to cool. They will peal much easier.
-
Once cooked and pealed, cut each egg in half and pop out the yolk.
-
Combine remaining ingredients (you can include or exclude the egg yolk. I keep it in due to the nutritional value of the yolk.
-
Fill each egg half with the new avocado mixture and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Combine all ingredients except almond flour and coconut oil.

Pig Shots (Keto)

Zucchini, diced in fairly small pieces
-
Cream Cheese
-
Mozzarella Cheese
-
Chili Powder
-
Bacon (wrap around for the sides of the cup. A toothpick will hold it together)
-
Sausage (for the bottom of the cup)
-
There are no quantities here as it depends on how many you are making. Just balance the mixture. You can add as many veggies as you like just keep the pieces small. I can see adding broccoli pieces and possibly some cauliflower pieces to the cream cheese filling.
-
I have cooked these both in the oven and on the grill. On the grill, though the tops are pretty, mine did get too crispy on the bottom, but still tasted great. If on the grill, cook them farther away from the direct bottom heat and they should come out okay. Some also take and add BBQ sauce to the top, I chose not to.
In the oven, bake at 350 degrees for about an hour. Instead of using toothpicks, I used a silicon cupcake mold.
