Presenting our Keto Broccoli and Cheese Bites recipe. Full of nutrient-dense green vegetables and high-fat cheese!
These tasty little broccoli and cheese snacks are more delicious than you would think. The lemon zest adds wonderful freshness that make you want to eat more (I like them cold, straight from the fridge).
We have experimented with cooking these little bites in a silicone muffin tray, they looked great, but the flavors were just too inconsistent for us to base a recipe on.
You are welcome to cook our keto broccoli and cheese bites in whatever tray you desire, we do recommend using a 11 x 7in rectangle brownie pan.
