Ingredients

Base

• 4 keto/low-carb tortillas (8-inch; high-fiber style)
• 454 g (1 lb) ground beef, chicken, or turkey
• 226 g (8 oz) reduced-fat mozzarella, shredded (divided)
• 227 g (8 oz) enchilada sauce (red or green)
• Salt & your favorite seasoning (taco blend, chili powder, garlic, etc.)

Step-by-step

Step 1 - Cook the meat

Brown the ground meat in a skillet with salt and seasoning until cooked through. Drain if needed.

Step 2 - Fill the tortillas

Divide the cooked meat evenly among the 4 tortillas. Sprinkle 28 g (1 oz) mozzarella into each tortilla. Roll up snugly and place seam-side down on a small sheet pan or baking dish.

Step 3 - Sauce and top

Pour 8 oz enchilada sauce over the rolls. Sprinkle the remaining 113 g (4 oz) mozzarella across the top.

Step 4 - Bake

Bake at 400°F (205°C) for 18 minutes, until the cheese melts and browns at the edges. Rest 2-3 minutes, then serve.

Substitutions & tips

• Protein picks: 93% beef = richer flavor; ground turkey/chicken = leaner.
• Tortillas: Use your favorite low-carb, high-fiber brand-this drives the carb/fiber macros.
• Sauce: Red enchilada is classic; green is great with chicken/turkey.
• Add-ins: Fold in chopped spinach or onion with the meat (adjust macros).

Storage

• Refrigerate up to 3 days. Reheat at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes or air-fry 3-5 minutes.
