The best part is that you can make them all at once and reheat them for an easy lunch or dinner, or freeze them for a quick dinner on busy weekday nights!

Let’s take some tacos with a keto crust to use in this dish!
You need a keto friendly crust, and for simplicity I chose a store-bought cauliflower crust. Just be careful and pay close attention to the nutritional value of cooked cauliflower skins, as many contain a lot of extra carbohydrates.
Consider using Trader Joe’s cauliflower crusts or Outer Aisle’s keto crusts. I found the Outer Aisle Cauliflower Rinds in the refrigerated section of my local Sprouts Farmers Market.
Keto Taco Pie (with a Cajun twist!)
: 6 SERIES
Preparation time: 20 MINUTES
Cooking time: 25 MINUTES
Total time : 45 MINUTES
A classic Mexican beef and cheese dish given a Cajun twist with Creole spices.
Fill it up:
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped black olives
- 1/4 cup fresh tomatoes, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped coriander
- 1/2 avocado, finely chopped
1
Put oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
2
When the oil sizzles, add the chopped onions, green chilies and pickled jalapenos. Cook until tender and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.
3
Add the minced meat and spices to the same pan and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. If necessary, drain off the fat. Then stir in half the grated cheese (this is the glue that holds everything together).
4
Remove the beef mixture from the heat and let cool in a separate bowl. This prevents the eggs from breaking when you add them. While it cools, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Once cooled, beat the egg with a whisk or fork and add it to the beef mixture while stirring.
5
Place the cauliflower crust in an empty cast iron skillet. Bake the pie dough for about 5 minutes, so the pie doesn’t get sticky.
6
Transfer the beef mixture from the bowl to the cauliflower crust in a deep baking dish. Top the pie with the remaining cheese and bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
7
Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving and finish with your favorite toppings! Black olives, sour cream, chopped cilantro, avocado and fresh diced tomatoes.
