Ground Beef Taquitos (Gluten & Grain-Free)
Simple and delicious crunchy beef taquitos...gluten & grain-free!
Ingredients
- 1 pound grass-fed beef
- 2-3 tablespoons, plus extra when baking avocado oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup dairy-free cream cheese (Violife brand)
- 16 Siete Almond Flour Tortillas
Toppings
- guacamole, cilantro, salsa & cream sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat avocado oil in skillet and sauté onion for 3-4 minutes over medium heat.
- Add ground beef and cook, stirring often, breaking up into smaller pieces until fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in garlic about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Next, add spices and coconut aminos to the ground beef and simmer 2-3 minutes more.
- Transfer meat to a bowl and let cool for a couple of minutes.
- While meat mixture is cooling, chop and prepare toppings.
- Mix dairy-free cream cheese into the meat mixture. This adds flavor and makes it easier to roll up tortillas.
- Heat the almond flour tortillas for a few minutes in oven or microwave right before adding the filling mixture. This helps the tortillas roll up without breaking.
- Stuff each tortilla with ground beef mixture and tightly roll.
- Lay each tortilla on sheet pan, brush with avocado oil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until crispy and browned. Make sure to start checking at 20 minutes.
- Top tortillas with your favorite toppings and cream sauce. We like to dip the tortillas in coconut aminos.
- Enjoy!
Notes
-
- Heat the almond flour tortilla for a few minutes in oven or microwave right before adding the filling mixture. This helps the tortillas roll up without breaking.
-
- Make sure to only use a small amount of the meat mixture for each tortilla to make it easier to roll and stay together.
-
- The dairy-free cream cheese is important to help bind the meat filling together. I use the Miyoko's brand because it is the cleanest ingredients.
- Coconut aminos is a must try as a dipping sauce!
