Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup water
- 4 8-inch low-carb tortillas
- 1 cup low-carb refried beans
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 1 small lime
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
Step 2
Add the taco seasoning and water to the skillet with the beef. Stir to combine fully, and let it simmer until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
Step 3
While the beef is cooking, in a small bowl, mash the avocado with the juice of half a lime, salt, and pepper to make a smooth guacamole. Set aside.
Step 4
Warm the low-carb tortillas according to package instructions, either in the microwave or on a skillet.
Step 5
Spread 1/4 cup of the low-carb refried beans on each tortilla, followed by 1/4 of the seasoned ground beef mixture.
Step 6
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded cheese over the beef layer.
Step 7
Add a tablespoon of sour cream across the cheese layer.
Step 8
Spread a quarter of the guacamole over the sour cream.
Step 9
Top with a sprinkle of chopped cilantro for freshness.
Step 10
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas.
Step 11
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb beefy five-layer burrito!
