→ Main Ingredients
01 -
450 grams ground beef (80/20 blend)
02 -
3 tablespoons taco seasoning (sugar-free or homemade)
03 -
160 millilitres heavy whipping cream
04 -
4 large eggs
05 -
80 millilitres chunky salsa
06 -
140 grams cheddar cheese, shredded (reserve 35 grams for topping)
07 -
0.5 teaspoon garlic salt or combination of salt and garlic powder
08 -
0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
# How to Make It:
01 -
Preheat oven to 175°C. Position oven rack in the centre. Grease a 23 cm pie dish and set aside.
02 -
Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, adding oil only if necessary to prevent sticking. Cook until no pink remains, then drain excess fat.
03 -
Add taco seasoning to the cooked beef. Stir well to evenly coat the meat, then transfer mixture into the prepared pie dish.
04 -
In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream and eggs. Incorporate salsa, 105 grams of shredded cheddar, garlic salt, and pepper until combined.
05 -
Pour the egg and cream mixture evenly over the taco beef in the dish. Sprinkle the remaining 35 grams of shredded cheddar on top.
06 -
Place pie dish uncovered in the oven. Bake for 35–40 minutes until the centre is set and the surface is golden brown.
07 -
Allow the pie to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Add optional garnishes as desired such as sour cream, salsa, cilantro, chives, avocado, tomatoes, or olives.
# Additional Information:
01 -
For a lighter version, substitute ground turkey or chicken, or reduce the amount of cheddar cheese.
02 -
Shredding cheese from a block lowers carbohydrate content and avoids additives found in pre-grated varieties.
03 -
Doubling the quantities may require an extra 8–10 minutes of baking time.
