Description

This layered version of beef enchiladas hits all the right notes, but keeps the carbs low. Make a batch of Aunt Rocky’s All Purpose Low Carb Tortillas (recipe on Tasty Kitchen), or use your favorite low carb/keto tortillas. Suitable for Atkins, keto, lchf, low carb, diabetic, low glycemic, gluten free.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground Beef 85/15
  • ¼ cups Onion, Diced
  • 1 teaspoon Christopher Ranch Chopped Garlic (or 2 Fresh Cloves)
  • 8 ounces, fluid La Victoria Enchilada Sauce, Medium Hot
  • 4 ounces, fluid Tomato Sauce, No Sugar Added
  • 2-¼ ounces, weight Sliced Black Olives, Drained
  • 4 whole Aunt Rocky's All Purpose Low Carb Tortillas (See Separate Recipe On Tasty Kitchen)
  • 1-½ cup Cheddar Cheese, Coarsely Shredded

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray a 1 1/2-quart casserole (round works best) with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

Brown hamburger in a large skillet. Drain grease only if there’s a lot (I don’t drain mine). Add onion, and cook until translucent. Add garlic and cook just for 1 minute.

Add enchilada sauce, tomato sauce and olives to the hamburger and stir well. Turn off heat.

Put one of the wraps in the bottom of your casserole. Next, layer with 1/4 of the meat mixture, then 1/4 of the cheese. Repeat layers, ending with cheese on top.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until cheese on top begins to brown. Let rest for 10 minutes before cutting to serve.

Leftovers may be frozen.

Notes:
1. You’ll be using only 1/2 of a small can of tomato sauce. You can freeze the other half in a freezer bag and save to use next time, or make 2 casseroles at one time and freeze the extra to be warmed and served later.
2. This is a family favorite. I make this casserole with regular flour tortillas for the carb eaters in my family. If you do that, use about 10 to 12 ounces of enchilada sauce. The flour tortillas really soak it up.

I don’t get any kind of commission or kickback for products I recommend. Nutritional estimates are per serving based on exact ingredients I used, calculated with My Fitness Pal’s online recipe analyzer. The recipe is stored there and available to MFP users for logging in their food diaries.
