And here's where keto proves once again to be the perfect diet.
When I stumbled across this recipe, I had one of those moments where it just felt right:

It's easy, minimal ingredients, maximal deliciousness.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 3/4 cup water
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Preheat the oven to 350.
First brown the beef over medium heat in a skillet until no longer pink.
Sizzling meat is music to my ears. |
Add the taco seasoning and mix, then add the water and let simmer until the sauce thickens a bit.
Meanwhile, add the eggs, heavy cream, garlic, salt into a bowl and mix.
Or do the ghetto version using a plastic tub instead of a bowl. I'm not cooking for the President here ok? |
Spread the beef in the bottom of a pie pan. Pour the mix on top and sprinkle the cheese over everything.
I forgot this time but I would pour the grease out from the beef before putting it in the pan. |
I think taking this out of the oven must be what it feels like to have your first child be born. Except hopefully you don't eat it after. |
I served it with avocado, tomato and sour cream. An amazing experience for all the senses.
