Beef Enchiladas
Hold the tortillas! There's no need for them with these tasty low-carb beef enchiladas. We wrap our spiced beef mixture in deli-style turkey breast and then top with grated cheese, a quick homemade enchilada sauce, and slices of jalapeño.
Ingredients
Sauce
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 15 oz. unsweetened tomato sauce
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Enchiladas
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
- 3 oz. cauliflower, riced
- 1 oz. red onions, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup water
- 8 oz. deli turkey
- 1 cup Mexican cheese, shredded
Toppings
- pickled jalapeños
- ¼ cup sour cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). For 4 servings, grease a 9 x 12" (23 x 30 cm) baking dish. For more servings, use a larger dish or multiple dishes.
- Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- In a large pan over medium heat, add olive oil, ground beef, onion, riced cauliflower, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and water. Cook for about 7 to 10 minutes until beef is cooked through.
- Add half the sauce to the browned beef mixture. Put two overlapping slices of turkey together to form a long roll. Place 4-5 tbsp of beef mixture on the turkey, lengthwise and slightly off-center. Lift the side of the turkey that is nearest to the beef, and roll it to the opposite side. Repeat, to make two rolls per serving.
- Place beef-stuffed rolls into the baking dish and sprinkle with half the cheese. Pour the rest of the enchilada sauce on top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cheese has melted on top.
- Top with sour cream and jalapenos before serving.
