Brown the beef with the minced onion. Then, in a small cup, mix the cumin, chilli powder, onion and garlic powder and salt and pepper with the water. Then pour over the browned ground beef. Let simmer for 5 – 10 minutes or until all the liquid is evaporated.
Mix the cheddar, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Divide the cheese mixture into 6, then make into balls. Place onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool for 1- 2 minutes. Flip upside down, then place a few spoonfuls of the beef on the edge of each shell. Tightly roll each one into a cigar shape. ( You need to do this quite quickly, before the cheese hardens.)

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis. While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.
A lot of people are having huge success with this diet. They’re losing weight extremely fast and finding it really easy to stick to. There are just so many delicious things you can eat and most say they never really feel hungry. Unlike other diets where you always feel like you’re starving to death.
