Ingredients
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 Large avocados
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Divide the shredded cheddar cheese into four equal portions. Place each portion on the baking sheet forming a tall mound.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden brown on the edges.
Step 4
Remove the cheese mounds from the oven and let cool for about 1-2 minutes. Carefully lift each cheese round with a spatula and drape over a wooden spoon handle, creating a taco shell shape. Allow them to cool and harden.
Step 5
While the cheese taco shells are cooling, halve the avocados, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Step 6
Add lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the avocados. Mash the mixture with a fork until combined but still chunky.
Step 7
Quarter the cherry tomatoes and dice the red onion. Chop the fresh cilantro.
Step 8
In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, ground cumin, and remaining lime juice. Stir gently.
Step 9
Once the cheese taco shells are firm, fill each one with the mashed avocado mixture.
Step 10
Top with the tomato-onion-cilantro mix.
Step 11
Finish each taco with a dollop of sour cream.
Step 12
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb avocado tacos!
