Description

These low carb taco shells are perfect for keto and low carb diets. Made with simple ingredients like cheese or almond flour, they offer a crispy or soft alternative to traditional high-carb taco shells.


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (for hard shells) OR

1 cup almond flour (for soft shells)

2 large eggs

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F for cheese shells or prepare a non-stick pan for almond flour tortillas.

2. For cheese shells, spread small piles of cheese onto parchment paper and bake until golden. Shape while warm.

3. For almond flour tortillas, whisk almond flour with eggs and spices, then cook on a non-stick pan like a pancake.

4. Let shells cool before filling.

5. Add your favorite low carb fillings and serve.

Notes

Store leftover low carb taco shells in an airtight container.

Best enjoyed fresh for maximum crunch.
