Ingredients

  • 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 pound Ground beef
  • 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons Chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 medium Tomato, diced
  • 1 cup Lettuce, shredded
  • 1 medium Avocado, sliced
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Place small mounds of shredded cheddar cheese (about 2 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few inches apart.

Step 3

Bake the cheese mounds for 5-7 minutes until they are melted and the edges start to turn golden brown.

Step 4

Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Then, carefully lift each cheese round with a spatula and drape them over a rolling pin or similar round object to shape them into taco shells as they cool and harden.

Step 5

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.

Step 7

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the spices to fully incorporate.

Step 8

Remove the beef mixture from heat and set aside.

Step 9

To assemble the mini tacos, fill each cheese shell with a spoonful of the beef mixture.

Step 10

Top with diced tomato, shredded lettuce, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly mini tacos.
