INGREDIENT NOTES:
TACO SEASONING:
The taco seasoning provides a spicy and smoky taste in this dish. Replace it with the homemade taco seasoning instead.
MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- This cheese makes the texture crispy, and it melts perfectly, which works well for a keto diet. Swap this cheese with the Monterey Jack, or cheddar instead; they will lightly alter the texture & flavor.
GROUND BEEF:
- It gives a hearty and strong texture without increasing carb content. Substitute with the ground pork, chicken, lamb, or turkey as a replacement.
SOUR CREAM:
- This cream balances the creamy and spicy taste of the taco filling. Swap it with the heavy cream or cream cheese that is thinned with a small amount of water; they work properly.
ALMOND FLOUR:
- We include this flour to provide a light texture with zero gluten and to bind the batter of the chaffle. Include a small amount of coconut flour in place of it, as it soaks up extra moisture.
