How to Make Keto Beef Taquitos

To make these delicious and easy Beef taquitos you start by browning the beef with the minced onion. Then, in a small cup, mix the cumin, chilli powder, onion and garlic powder and salt and pepper with the water. Then pour over the browned ground beef. Let simmer for 5 – 10 minutes or until all the liquid is evaporated.

Mix the cheddar, mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Divide the cheese mixture into 6, then make into balls. Place onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for 6-8  minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool for 1- 2 minutes. Flip upside down, then place a few spoonfuls of the beef on the edge of each shell. Tightly roll each one into a cigar shape. ( You need to do this quite quickly, before the cheese hardens.)

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When in ketosis, your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source.

On Keto, you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from Fat, 15 to 25 percent from Protein, and 10 percent from Carbohydrates. You should avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

It’s a perfect make ahead recipe that can quickly be reheated by preheating your oven to 350 F. Then baking for 6-8 minutes.They can be made with many variations. Instead of Beef you could use Chicken with Franks Red or Keto Bbq Sauce or you could add a little cream cheese and or jalapeños.

    These were a hit with my recently diagnosed, diabetic husband. These will be a great snack between meals for him at work. if they microwave well. Has anyone tried reheating in a microwave?

      Hi Jenn, I’m glad you liked them. I would just let them cool for another minute or two before rolling them.
