Keto Marinated Mozzarella

5 ratings

Mozzarella balls are a healthy snack that you can enjoy alone or pair with a larger snack! Choose whole-milk mozzarella to get the full fat nutrition. By adding fresh basil, fresh oregano, fresh garlic, and just a sprinkle of crushed red pepper, you can make your mozzarella snack very flavorful.

    What’s the deal with the nutrition info for these? 616 calories for a serving?

      Suspect that the app thinks we will eat the entire 11/4 cups of olive oil.

      You probably used a good quality olive oil which will harden in the fridge. Poor quality remains liquidy 👍🏻

      Maybe it was in a cold spot. I'd keep in the door of your fridge.

    Awesome recipe! Do you use the olive oil afterwards to cook with?

      You certainly could! Make sure you don't get any little cheese bits into your cooking however.
