Ingredients

6 Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
6 slices of bacon
1 cup approx 1 cup avocado oil for frying depending on the size of your frying pan.

Instructions

Freeze the mozzarella cheese sticks overnight.
Wrap a slice of bacon around each cheese stick, starting at one end and rolling carefully until the other end. I wrapped the bacon around the ends and secured it in place with a toothpick. I tried to minimally overlap the bacon so that all of it would get crispy.
Heat about 1/2 inch of avocado oil in a cast iron or regular skillet.

.
Carefully place bacon-wrapped cheese stick in a frying pan and turn as each side gets brown and crispy so that the bacon cooks on all sides.
Remove from oil when the bacon is crispy and brown on all sides and place on a plate covered with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Enjoy!

Notes

I included 1/4 of the avocado oil in the nutritional information as most of it was left in the pan.
