INGREDIENT NOTES:
MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- We have to use mozzarella cheese, as it will give a melty and flexible texture. As a replacement, you can use Oaxaca cheese, provolone, or cream cheese.
GROUND BEEF:
- Ground beef provides high-fat content and maintains the juicy texture of the filling. We can swap it with ground lamb, crumbled tofu, or ground turkey.
CHEDDAR CHEESE:
- Utilize this cheese to offer a powerful flavor and make a crunchy exterior. Alternatively, you can use pepper Jack, edam, or Gouda.
SOUR CREAM:
- Sour cream helps to improve all the spices and gives a silky texture to this burrito. Replace it with high-fat Greek yogurt, Crème fraîche, or heavy cream.
KETO TORTILLAS:
- Keto tortillas are utilized to make this burrito. Switch them out with lettuce wraps, coconut flour tortillas, cheese wraps, or almond flour tortillas.
BUTTER:
- Butter aids in creating a golden and crunchy texture for the crust. We can use olive oil, ghee, or avocado oil as a substitue.
KETO TOMATO PASTE:
- Kwto tomato paste will give a tarty flavor and powerful taste. Instead, you can use hot sauce, tomato puree, keto marinara sauce, or roasted red pepper paste.
