Keto Crunchwrap Recipe – Low Carb Dinner Idea with Crunchy Taco Shells
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter: Add cream cheese and heavy cream, whisking until smooth. Stir in the shredded cheddar until fully melted and set aside.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart, for 5–7 minutes until browned: Drain excess fat, then stir in the taco seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat: Fry each tortilla for 1–2 minutes per side until golden, then drain on paper towels.
- Place one large crispy tortilla flat: Spread the seasoned beef in the center, drizzle with cheese sauce, top with a smaller tortilla, then add sour cream, lettuce, tomato, and extra cheddar.
- Fold the edges of the large tortilla over the filling to create a packet, seam side down: Heat the skillet with a little oil, then cook the crunchwrap seam-side down for 3–4 minutes. Flip and cook another 3–4 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Remove from skillet, let rest for a minute, then cut in half: Serve warm with cilantro and jalapeño slices on top.
