Making These Halfway Homemade Easy Low Carb Enchiladas At Home

You can even get these keto beef enchiladas ready early, cover and refrigerate, and bake when you’re ready to eat so you’re not scrambling at dinner time.

Here’s what you will need to make your halfway homemade keto beef enchiladas:

Skillet
Wooden spoon
Measuring spoons

You’ll start by preparing your keto taco seasoning and browning your beef. Once your beef is browned, add a can of chopped green chiles and get ready to assemble!

Fill each taco shell with a couple tablespoons of the beef mixture, roll them up, and lay folded side down in the baking dish. Repeat that step 7 times until all of the beef is used.

Add a couple tablespoons of sour cream directly into the can of enchilada sauce and use your fork to mix it up. Pour that mixture over your enchiladas, making sure to coat them evenly and thoroughly.

Top with shredded Mexican cheese, cover, and bake for 15 minutes. Remove your covering and bake for another 5 minutes.

In thirty short minutes, you’ll be ready to feed your brood!

Ingredients & Substitutions For These Easy Low Carb Beef Enchiladas

Low carb tortillas: this can be a controversial item in the keto and low carb world. The majority of them are not gluten free so if you have a gluten allergy, be mindful when making this recipe. There are several carb conscious brands of tortillas these days so they’re easy to find at most major grocery stores around the country. I like to use Mission Low Carb Tortillas (4 NC each), La Banderita Carb Counter Tortillas (5NC each), or Ole Xtreme Wellness Low Carb Tortillas (5NC each). Siete brand makes a grain free tortilla but I have not tried them yet.

Enchilada sauce: red enchilada sauce is used in this recipe but if you prefer green enchilada sauce, feel free to swap it out.

Homemade taco seasoning: my keto taco seasoning can be doubled or tripled and kept in a mason jar in your pantry for easy access. If you like a spicier taco seasoning, add a teaspoon of chipotle powder or a dash of cayenne pepper.
