Ingredients:

For the Burrito Filling:

  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning (make sure it’s low-carb or keto-friendly)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup salsa (check for low-carb options)
  • 1/4 cup diced green chilies (canned or fresh)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

For the Wet Burrito Sauce:

  • 1 cup beef or chicken broth (preferably low-sodium)
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For Wrapping:

  • Large low-carb tortillas (look for ones with almond or coconut flour)

Instructions:

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground meat until browned. Add diced onions and garlic and cook until onions are translucent.
  2. Add taco seasoning, salt, and pepper to the meat mixture. Stir in salsa and green chilies. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until well combined.
  3. In a separate saucepan, combine all the ingredients for the wet burrito sauce. Simmer over low heat until the sauce thickens slightly. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Warm the low-carb tortillas according to the package instructions.
  6. Assemble the burritos by placing a portion of the meat mixture onto the center of each tortilla. Add shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, and cilantro on top.
  7. Fold the sides of the tortilla in and then roll it up to form a burrito. Place the burritos seam-side down in a baking dish.
  8. Pour the wet burrito sauce over the assembled burritos, making sure they are well-coated.
  9. Sprinkle additional cheese on top if desired.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Garnish with extra cilantro and serve.
