Low Carb Taco Casserole - The Best Keto Recipes (1)

One of the most popular recipes on this site is my One Pan Cabbage Casserole. It also happens to be one of the most made recipes in our house! It is easy, inexpensive, low carb and it always hits the spot! Recently we had a few avocados and jalapeños that needed to be used so I made our favorite go to but with Mexican flavors. It was such a hit!

If your family is like mine, Mexican food is always going to be a crowd pleaser. This is no different! For my not keto husband he ate this with tortilla chips, but could easily cut up some low carb tortillas and bake them or throw them in the air fryer for some low carb tortilla chips! I had a bowl with avocado, sour cream and a little hot sauce. This low carb taco casserole was a huge hit!
