Keto Mexican Pizza

Tana
This is a  Mexican Pizza with a Keto Twist that delivers all the bold flavor and crunch without the carbs. It's like a Taco Bell favorite—remade to be low-carb, gluten-free, and seed-oil-free.

Ingredients
  

  • ½ lb ground beef or chorizo
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning no sugar or fillers - I use Siete brand
  • ¼ cup water
  • cup sugar-free enchilada sauce or taco sauce like Siete or homemade
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese Use fresh not pre shredded!
  • Avocado oil for cooking
  • Toppings Optional but Delicious
  • Sliced black olives not for me but go for it if you like them
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Green onions
  • Fresh jalapeños
  • Sour cream
  • Avocado or guacamole Love

Low-Carb "Tortilla" Base

  • option 1 2 Egg Wraps or 2 low carb tortillas like "Egglife"

Homemade Cheesy Tortilla

  • option 2 1 1/2 Cups shredded mozzarella Recommended!! Easy and awesome!
  • 2 tbsp almond flour or 1 tbsp coconut flour

Instructions
 

  • Instructions for Option 2 base
  • Melt cheese in the microwave until gooey (about 1 min).
  • Stir in "flour" and egg to form a dough.
  • Divide and flatten into two thin circles on parchment paper.
  • Bake at 400°F for 8–10 min until golden and firm.
  • Layer the Pizza:
  • Place one tortilla/crust on a baking sheet.
  • Spread a little enchilada sauce, layer with seasoned meat and some cheese.
  • Top with second tortilla, more sauce, then the rest of the cheese. You can leave the second tortilla off the top and make 2 pizzas instead on one thick one. (See my picture)

  • Garnish with toppings and slice into wedges.
  • Enjoy!!!
