A Keto Taco Pie sounds like the perfect mix of delicious and low-carb! Here’s a simple recipe to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (or turkey/chicken)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning (make sure it’s low-carb or homemade)
- 1/2 cup salsa (check for no added sugar)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or Mexican blend)
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: sliced jalapeños, avocado, sour cream, lettuce, diced tomatoes
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or similar baking dish.
- Cook the ground beef: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef (or turkey/chicken) over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat if needed. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add taco seasoning and salsa: Stir in the taco seasoning and salsa. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until everything is well mixed and heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth. Add the sour cream and mix well. Stir in half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
- Assemble the pie: Spread the beef mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pie dish. Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the top, spreading it out evenly.
- Top with cheese: Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
- Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Cool and serve: Let the taco pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with optional toppings like avocado, jalapeños, sour cream, or lettuce.
Enjoy your Keto Taco Pie! It’s hearty, flavorful, and perfect for a low-carb meal.
