Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Chorizo sausage
- 1 large Avocado
- 4 small Low-carb tortillas
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Romaine lettuce
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Cilantro
- 1 Lime
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Remove the casing from the chorizo sausage and add it to the skillet.
Cook the chorizo, breaking it apart with a spatula, until fully browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
While the chorizo cooks, halve, pit, and scoop out the avocado flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork and season with salt and pepper, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Chop the cherry tomatoes, romaine lettuce, and cilantro, and set aside.
Once the chorizo is cooked, remove it from the heat.
Warm the low-carb tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute on each side.
To assemble the burritos, place a warm tortilla on a flat surface.
Spread a generous spoonful of mashed avocado over the center of the tortilla.
Add a layer of cooked chorizo followed by cherry tomatoes, lettuce, cheddar cheese, and cilantro.
Top with a dollop of sour cream and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Carefully roll the tortilla into a burrito by folding in the sides and then rolling from the bottom up.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Serve the keto chorizo burritos warm and enjoy!
