Ingredients
Scale
Ground Beef Mixture
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

- 4 large low-carb tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes

Instructions
- Prepare the skillet: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat to start the cooking process.
- Sauté onions: Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened and translucent, enhancing flavor.
- Cook ground beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned thoroughly.
- Season and simmer: Stir in minced garlic, taco seasoning, salt, black pepper, and water. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens and flavors combine.
- Warm tortillas: Slightly warm the low-carb tortillas to make them pliable and easier to roll.
- Assemble burritos: Spoon the seasoned ground beef into the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded cheddar, lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, and guacamole.
- Roll burritos: Fold the sides inwards and roll each tortilla tightly around the filling to form a burrito.
- Serve: Serve the burritos warm for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- Substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
- Add hot sauce or jalapeños for an extra spicy kick.
- For a lower-carb alternative, skip the tortillas and use a lettuce wrap or serve as a burrito bowl.
