In this article, we will show you how to make mouthwatering breakfast tacos that are not only keto-friendly but also easy to prepare. So, let’s dive right in and discover the delightful world of breakfast tacos!
Tacos are a popular meal for those following a ketogenic diet. However, it can be challenging to find a crispy shell that doesn’t compromise your macros. Sure, there are various tortillas made from psyllium husk or flaxseed meal, but let’s face it, they lack the real crunch we crave. In this post, we will introduce you to a new way of making taco shells, using cheese!
Make the Shell with Cheese
If you have tried the cheese chips recipe before, you know that cheese gets crunchy and stays solid when cooked enough. The best thing about using cheese for taco shells is that once it cools, it’s a perfect vessel for holding whatever you’d like to put in it. For this recipe, we’ll use shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bacon, Eggs, and Avocado, Oh My!
Instead of traditional taco fillings, we’ll make breakfast tacos with bacon, eggs, and avocado. Cook the bacon on a baking sheet with foil for about 15-20 minutes at 375F. While the bacon cooks, heat 1/3 cup of mozzarella at a time on a clean pan on medium heat for the shells. Wait until the cheese is browned on the edges, about 2-3 minutes. Use a pair of tongs to lift the shell up and drape it over a wooden spoon resting on a pot. Do the same with the rest of your cheese, working in batches of 1/3 cups.
Next, cook your eggs in butter, stirring occasionally until they’re done. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon a third of your scrambled eggs, avocado, and bacon into each hardened taco shell. Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the tops of the breakfast tacos. Add hot sauce and cilantro if you’d like!
