INGREDIENT NOTES:
SOUR CREAM:
- Using this cream provides a mild, tangy flavor and gives a creamy texture with a balance of spicy taste. Use the heavy cream blended with apple cider vinegar or a small amount of lemon juice or high-fat Greek yogurt as an alternative.
GROUND MEAT:
- The ground meat includes protein and gives a structure. Swap it with ground turkey or beef instead. They will provide moisture and are perfect for a keto diet.
CHEESE:
- It is a binding component that improves the flavor and offers a smooth texture. Replace it with Monterey Jack, high-fat cheddar, cream cheese, or mozzarella. Don’t use the starchy or processed cheeses.
GUACAMOLE:
- This ingredient provides a fresh taste and flavor, and it includes healthy fats in the dish. Never utilize the packaged ones because they contain sugars. You can utilize the lime juice, mashed ripe avocado, and salt.
