KETO WRAPPER:

  • We have to use the keto-friendly wrapper made with the almond or coconut flour along with the mozzarella and they are less in carbs as compared to the traditional wrappers.

GROUND CHICKEN:

  • We use ground chicken to make the wontons as it cooks quickly and takes taco flavor well; you would also utilize ground beef or turkey to make these taco wontons.

TACO SEASONING:

  • We have to use the store-brought keto-friendly taco seasoning and we can also use the homemade which includes cumin, garlic seasoning, oregano, paprika, onion seasoning, chili powder, & oregano. RED ONIONS AND BELL PEPPER: I use the red onions and different colors of the bell pepper to make the taco crunchy and colorful and we would also utilize the other keto-friendly vegetables as well like jalapenos or the zucchini.

MEXICAN CHEESE BLEND:

  • We have to use a full-fat shredded Mexican blend to keep it keto-friendly; cheese adds rich flavor and a gooey, melty texture.

AVOCADO LIME CRÈME:

  • The avocado lime crème is rich in healthful fats and creaminess and it balances the spice with the refreshing taste.

SOUR CREAM:

  • We use the full-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt to make the tangy, smooth, and creamy dressing.
