Keto Pork Chop Bake

Oh hey, so if you haven't heard yet, we're trying this new clean eating thing. More specifically, Keto. High fat, low carb lifestyle change of lots of fats and bacon. Did I mention bacon? Mmm. I'm in a group on Facebook for Keto and wrote down a ton of recipes to try out. Our first go was the Pork Chop Bake.

Ingredients:
thin cut pork chops (we used 8)
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
14 pepperoni slices, torn into pieces (I have no idea why 14. just because)
4Tbsp butter
6 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup broccoli, cut up
coconut oil
garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste



First things first, you need to cook your bacon. I cook mine in the oven. Line a baking sheet with foil, place bacon on it, set oven for 400F (DON'T PREHEAT) and pop the bacon in for 25 minutes. Lower the oven to 350F. While you wait for the bacon to cool, add a few Tbsp of coconut oil into a pan and fry up the pork chops. Place the cooked chops on the foil covered pan you just cooked the bacon on. In a medium bowl, mix the crumbled bacon, pepperoni, cheese, broccoli and butter together. Spread mixture over the chops and place in over for 10 minutes. Done!
