Low Carb Keto Beef Burritos

These keto burritos are so tasty and yet super easy to make. You’re going to love the flavour of the ground beef. Use my new spiced coconut flour tortillas for the burrito tortilla or for a lighter alternative just serve in a bowl or a lettuce or cabbage leaf. For an authentic version, I recommend making the tortillas though, they don’t take long at all.

Notes

Net carbs: 2.6 without tortilla including cheese, lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, sour cream and coriander.
4.1 g net carbs per burrito with spiced coconut flour tortilla.
Storage: Best made fresh but the tortillas and burrito mince can both be made a day ahead or made ahead and frozen then defrosted.
