Keto Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Fries
Ingredients:

2 ripe but firm avocados
8 slices of bacon (sugar-free and keto-friendly)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Toothpicks (optional, for securing the bacon)

Instructions:

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the Avocados:
Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits.
Carefully peel the avocados and slice each half into 4 even wedges, resulting in 8 wedges per avocado.

Season the Avocado Slices:
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Gently sprinkle the seasoning mix over the avocado slices, coating them evenly.

Wrap with Bacon:
Take each avocado slice and wrap a slice of bacon around it, starting at one end and wrapping towards the other end. If necessary, use a toothpick to secure the bacon in place.

Bake:
Place the bacon-wrapped avocado slices on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not touching.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and browned. You may need to turn the slices halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Cool and Serve:
Remove from the oven and let the avocado fries cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them on their own or with a dipping sauce like a keto-friendly ranch or spicy mayo.

Tips:

Air Fryer Option: If you prefer using an air fryer, cook the bacon-wrapped avocado fries at 400°F (200°C) for about 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
Dipping Sauce Ideas: Serve with a keto-friendly ranch dressing, chipotle mayo, or guacamole for extra flavor.

These Keto Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Fries are a delightful combination of creamy avocado and crispy bacon, making for a perfect low-carb snack or appetizer. Enjoy creating and sharing this delicious recipe

Chipotle Dipping Sauce
Ingredients:

1/2 cup mayonnaise (ensure it's sugar-free and keto-friendly)

1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (use according to your heat preference)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions:

Prepare Chipotle Peppers: If you prefer a milder sauce, use one chipotle pepper. For a spicier kick, use two. Remove the seeds if you want to reduce the heat.
Blend Ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chipotle peppers, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Blend Until Smooth: Process until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more lime juice if you want it tangier or more chipotle if you want it spicier.
Chill: Transfer the sauce to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve: Enjoy as a dipping sauce with your Keto Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Fries or any other keto-friendly dish.

Tips:

Consistency: If the sauce is too thick, you can thin it out with a bit more lime juice or a splash of water.
Storage: Store the chipotle dipping sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

This sauce adds a delicious smoky and spicy kick to your avocado fries and is versatile enough to be used with other keto-friendly snacks and dishes. Enjoy!
