Keto Taquitos


Description

This recipe for low carb Keto Taquitos makes a delicious batch of taquitos with your favorite filling. Super quick to make, takes less than 20 minutes. Low Carb, keto friendly, gluten free


Ingredients

  • Shredded Mexican Cheese Blendor shredded cheddar cheese, or round provolone circles
  • Meat Filling of choice (I used carnitas, other good options are ground beef, shredded chicken, shredded beef, etc.)
  • Toppings of choice: sour cream, pickled red onions, cilantro, hot sauce, salsa, guacamole, etc.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper so that it doesn’t stick. Sprinkle shredded cheese in a thin layer on baking sheet into round circles, leaving a little room between each circle (they will spread when they melt).
  3. Put in the oven for 8-10 minutes until cheese has melted and started to get crispy.
  4. Heat whatever meat you are using and put in the cheese circles then roll up cheese.
  5. This step is optional but I think it’s important for the crunchy taquito texture: Lightly grease a pan with oil or butter and then place taquitos in, cooking until slightly crispy on all sides.
  6. Serve with your favorite toppings.

Notes

I’m not including measurements here because it’s entirely up to you and however taquitos you want to make. For a frame of reference, I used about 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend and 1 1/2 cups meat to make six decent sized taquitos.
