KETO CHEESE TACOS

25 minutes
Calories: 1010kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 pound ground beef (medium)
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese (medium)
  • iceberg lettuce (medium)
  • sour cream
  • cilantro (chopped)
  • tomatoes (diced)

Instructions

  • First off, mix all the taco spices together until uniform and note that this recipe yields enough seasoning for a few batches.
  • Next, brown and drain a pound of medium ground beef.
  • Add about three (3) tablespoons of the seasoning and mix until well combined - you may also want to add a few tablespoons of water to help the flavours steam and mingle.
  • Grate about 2 cups of cheddar cheese, and on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, evenly make four (4) circular piles of cheese.
  • Pop the sheet into the oven set to high broil and keep a close eye.
  • Once the cheese is nicely melted, bubbly, and beginning to brown on the edges, remove from oven and let cool for a minute or two.
  • Next, fold the cheese circles in half to resemble a taco shell, and let cool until the shape is set.
  • I like to use the edge of load pan, but use whatever may work in your kitchen.
  • Assemble your tacos as normal, pile on the taco meat and toppings, adding any other keto friendly fixings you enjoy.
  • Keto cheese tacos - cheddar is better!
