Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces low-carb tortillas
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 pieces romaine lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cup diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Once hot, add the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it into smaller pieces with a spatula.
Stir in chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the beef is fully cooked and well-coated with the spices. Remove from heat and set aside.
Place one low-carb tortilla on a flat surface. Lay a lettuce leaf in the center of the tortilla to make a base.
Spread about 1/4 cup of the cooked ground beef over the lettuce. Top with 2-3 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese, a tablespoon of diced tomatoes, and a small dollop of sour cream.
Roll the tortilla tightly around the fillings to create a compact roll. Repeat the process for the remaining 3 tortillas.
Slice each roll in half if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your Low Carb Tex-Mex Roll!
