Cheese Tacos are one of those magical low carb creations that forgoes the need for bread entirely! As many of you might have noticed, I haven’t posted in over two years! Life has been very busy. My wife and I had a kid who’s now 2 (mmm, seems to be a correlation with the posting …) and we moved into a new house. I haven’t stopped doing keto but I’ve mostly been just posting on Instagram. This recipe is one I posted recently that people were really interested in so I figured I’d jump back on the posting bandwagon. I’m filling this with Crockpot Pork Carnitas but you could use any meat. You will need a well seasoned Cast Iron Skillet in order to melt the cheese and assure it doesn’t stick to the pan. Start by heating the Pork Carnitas in a hot cast iron pan. We want to reduce the amount of liquid and crisp the pork. This step is optional but I added some chunky salsa to the pan to mix in with my meat. Start the cheese taco part by pushing the meat to the side and making a pile of cheese in the center. You want to wait until the cheese has melted and starts to bubble. Next, use a spatula to place the meat onto the cheese. Make sure to pat it down into the cheese. Put any additional fillings you want into the taco. I used some guacamole and sour cream. This next part takes a little bit of practice, you might break a few at first if you’re not used to sensing when the cheese is done. Take a fish spatula and flip the edge of the cheese taco over. Behold the finished Cheese Taco stuffed with Pork Carnitas! This one is a little more done than I’d like cause I stopped to take pictures 🙂
