Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20)
- 2 tbsp Taco seasoning (sugar-free)
- 4 cups Lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (full-fat)
- 0.5 cup Salsa (sugar-free, low-carb)
- 1 medium Avocado, diced
- 4 oz Pork rinds (crushed, keto-friendly substitute for chips)
- 0.25 cup Olives, sliced (optional)
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes, breaking it up into small pieces with a spatula.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked beef and stir to combine. Allow the seasoning to cook with the beef for 1-2 minutes to enhance flavor. Remove from heat.
Prepare individual serving bags by portioning 1 ounce of crushed pork rinds into four resealable snack-sized bags or small bowls for a more eco-friendly option.
Layer 1 cup of shredded lettuce over the pork rinds in each bag or bowl.
Divide the seasoned ground beef evenly among the bags or bowls, spooning it on top of the lettuce.
Add 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to each serving.
Top each portion with 1-2 tablespoons of sour cream and 1-2 tablespoons of salsa.
Sprinkle diced avocado, green onions, and sliced olives (if using) over the top of each bag or bowl.
Seal the bag, give it a gentle shake to mix the ingredients, and eat directly from the bag with a fork, or dig in straight from the bowl.
