Keto Beef Enchiladas

on

 



Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef

  • 1 small can (4 oz) diced green chilies

  • 2 tbsp keto-friendly taco seasoning (or a mix of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and salt)

  • 8 low-carb keto-friendly tortillas

  • 1 can (10 oz) red enchilada sauce (look for a brand with no added sugar)

  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend or Cheddar Jack cheese

  • Optional: 1/4 cup diced onions (to cook with the beef)

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch glass baking dish with non-stick spray.

  2. Cook the Filling: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef (and diced onions, if using) until fully cooked. Drain any excess grease.

  3. Season: Stir the diced green chilies and taco seasoning into the ground beef. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes so the flavors meld together, then remove from heat.

  4. Prep the Dish: Pour a thin layer of enchilada sauce into the bottom of your prepared baking dish to prevent sticking.

  5. Assemble: Lay out a low-carb tortilla. Add a generous scoop of the beef mixture down the center and sprinkle lightly with a pinch of cheese. Roll the tortilla up tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.

  6. Top: Pour the remaining red enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the rolled enchiladas.

  7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the rest of the shredded cheese evenly over the sauce, covering the enchiladas completely.

  8. Bake: Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the enchilada sauce is bubbling around the edges and the cheese is fully melted and slightly golden.

  9. Serve: Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with sour cream, sliced avocado, or fresh cilantro if desired!
