Steak Bites Wrapped in Bacon and Mozzarella

I hope you all enjoyed your Christmas weekend and didn’t throw away all the hard work you’ve been putting into getting into the best shape of your lives! If you did….all the more motivation to get back on track this week! Today’s recipe uses the most well known keto ingredients of meat and cheese! These are pieces of steak wrapped in mozzarella cheese and bacon. I used beef chunks but if you cant find them, then you can just cut a thick steak into pieces. You’ll need quite a few toothpicks for this recipe but the cheese ands up holding the bacon in place pretty well once it melts! This dish makes 4 servings and keeps great in the fridge to be used as left overs for the rest of the week.
