Description

Enjoy a flavorful low-carb burrito filled with seasoned meat, fresh vegetables, and vibrant toppings, perfect for a healthy meal.


Ingredients

  • Low Carb Tortilla Wraps
  • Cooked Chicken or Beef
  • Bell Peppers
  • Onions
  • Lettuce
  • Cheese (optional)
  • Salsa (optional)
  • Avocado (optional)
  • Spices (cumin, paprika, salt, pepper)

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Meat: In a heavy skillet, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add your choice of chicken or beef, cooking until wonderfully browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside to keep it warm.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, toss in your sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté until they become soft and fragrant, approximately 4-5 minutes.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: In a separate pan or the microwave, gently warm the low-carb tortilla wraps until they become pliable.
  4. Assemble Your Burrito: On each tortilla, layer cooked meat, sautéed vegetables, fresh and crisp lettuce, optional cheese, and any other toppings.
  5. Roll it Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then tightly roll it around the filling.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Present your burrito on a plate, accompanied by salsa and creamy avocado.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to four days. To reheat, microwave for 1-2 minutes or in an oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes.
