I lost weight and still ate pizza rolls – my recipe couldn’t be easier and is ready in 12 minutes
A DIET expert has revealed it’s possible to lose weight without sacrificing your favorite dishes.
Karim (@ice.karimcooks) shares the low calorie recipes that helped to transform his own body with over 3 million followers on TikTok.
He has also penned a recipe book with over 70 recipes that can be made in less than an hour.
The online fitness coach, who wants to “crush diet culture,” went viral after wowing with his impressive pizza rolls.
“You don’t have to give up pizza rolls if you want to lose weight,” Karim said.
He showed cheese oozing from freshly baked rolls as he enjoyed them with a herb dip.
“At only 82 calories per pizza roll and 7g protein, these are f***ing insane,” the foodie continued.
“They taste just exquisite.
“Making these couldn’t be easier, you just add one or two tablespoons of your favorite tomato sauce on these zero carb tortillas.
“Add half of a string cheese on top with three slices of turkey pepperoni.
“Tuck the sides in then roll up until it looks like this,” he said demonstrating.
He showed a bottle of zero calorie I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter spray, continuing: “A couple of sprays of this and then top with oregano, parmesan cheese.
“Now fry at 350 degrees until they are gold and crispy.”
Karim said the pizza rolls can be baked or placed in an air fryer at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes.
He shared advice to help his followers with portion control.
He recommended using five tortillas, two and a half string cheeses cut in half, 10 tbsp of tomato sauce and 15 slices of turkey pepperoni.
The video was positively received with commenters eager to try the recipe for themselves.
One person wrote: “Honestly that looks great. Also turkey pepperoni is sooo good.”
Another commented: “I would probably eat 10, so that’s 870 cals right there.”
A third said: “Made these today and used Rao’s marinara sauce instead. They were really good!!”
A fourth added: “I had a couple, these were filling and surprisingly sooooo good.”
