Taco Pie

The one thing you realize real quick is to embrace tacos on Keto. Taco Salads, Taco Pies, Tacos with baked cheese shells (coming soon). I made this taco pie as a meal prep on a Sunday and ate it for dinner with a side salad a couple days in a row. I love me some sour cream and guacamole so tacos are a god send on this "diet". Here is a winner for a crustless taco pie!

On Keto the one thing you have to know is that sugar is in EVERYTHING. Look at labels. You can no longer buy taco seasoning. Embrace making your own! Recipe below
