This 5-minute high-fat dip is perfect for keto snacking and I made a new video for you! You can use it as dip with fresh cucumber slices - or roll it into balls and cover in grated Parmesan or crisped up bacon pieces. If you can't eat dairy, try my Avocado & Egg Fat Bombs instead.
You can find more fat bombs in my Sweet & Savory Fat Bombs cookbook. If you like my book, please, don't forget to leave a review on Amazon - thank you for your support!
Step-by-step
Place all the ingredients in a bowl: cream cheese, parmesan, pesto and olives. Mix using a spatula until well combined.
Slice the cucumber or other fresh vegetables you plan to serve it with.
Place the remaining dip in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to a week. If you can't eat it within a week, halve the recipe.

This is absolutely amazing!!! My new favourite thing to make and eat. This is my 3rd time making in the past week. Everyone I share it with is in love. Many Thanks for sharing!!! And I've been making the coconut bacon to roll the balls in...simply divine!
Thank you so much Cheryl! ❤️
I made this and refrigerated it over night: it was awful! Dry and hard and tasteless. Will never make again.
I'm sorry to hear that, Marcella, but to be honest I'm a little surprised after your first comment below. Are you sure you meant to comment here?
YAY! Finally a Ft bomb that doesn't make me gag!Thank you tremendously.
How do you keep from eating the whole thing, this is so delicious
Martina,
I absolutely love this fat bomb! My only question is how do keep from eating more than two tablespoons at a time?!
Thank you for all your hard work.
Shelli
Thank you so much!! It doesn't freeze well so I guess making just half of the recipe may help 😊
Im a first timer to keto....What is the portion amount for this snack?
I listed 2 heaping tbsp/ 1 ½ oz/ 40 g + vegetables to eat it with but it's up to you, even double the amount would be fine.
Looks good, have to try it. I lost 11 pounds, now I'm on hold, why?do I have to tweak something? Janet thank
Hi Janet, this post may help: How To Low Carb: 15+ Common Weight Loss Mistakes
i would also instruct ppl to put their portion on a plate as the moisture from the veggies will get in the dip. keeps the dip undiluted and thick for next time.
Thank you Hélène, yes, I agree!
