Low Carb Tacos

If you’ve been on a low carb diet for any length of time, you know that trying to eat Mexican food can be a challenge. Even though Mexican food includes many elements that are low in carbohydrates (such as beef, chicken, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole), they are often wrapped in high carb corn or flour tortillas and tortilla shells. This is a recipe for a low carb taco shell that you can fill with toppings of your choosing.

Ingredients:

• Sliced provolone cheese (find a brand that is 1 carb or less per slice)
• Parchment paper
• Toppings of your choice (seasoned ground beef, shredded cheese, lettuce, or fresh veggies)

Instructions:
Place one slice of provolone cheese on a square cut piece of parchment paper and place in microwave oven. Microwave the cheese for 45-60 seconds (depending on your microwave). Carefully remove the cheese and parchment paper and fold the cheese until it makes a taco shape. Remove the cheese from the paper and set aside the shell to cool. Repeat and make as many taco shells as you’d like. Fill with meat, cheese, lettuce, and veggies.
