Why This Keto Cabbage Crunchwrap?
These Keto Cabbage Crunchwraps are not your ordinary wraps. They are:
- Low-carb and keto-friendly
- Bursting with flavor from the seasoned meat, cheese crisps, and keto queso
- Loaded with veggies for a well-balanced meal
- A creative way to use cabbage leaves as a wrap
- Perfect for a satisfying lunch or dinner
Ingredients:
- 1 head of cabbage, cored (approx. 1 kg or 2.2 lbs)
- 240 g (8.5 oz) sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons mild-tasting oil (30 ml)
- 450 g (1 lb) ground beef or turkey
- 4 tablespoons keto taco seasoning (60 ml)
- 1 cup keto queso (240 ml)
- 120 ml (4 oz) sour cream
- 2 cups shredded lettuce (100 g)
- 1 tomato, diced and deseeded
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Boil a pot of water large enough for the cabbage.
Steam the cabbage by adding it to the boiling water for 2 minutes. Remove 12 cabbage leaves, one at a time, using two sets of tongs. Trim the thick part of the stem.
Make cheese crisps by baking the cheddar cheese circles on the baking sheet for 6 minutes or until edges are brown.
Prepare or heat the keto queso.
In a skillet, heat oil and cook ground meat, breaking it up as it cooks. Add taco seasoning and water, cooking until the sauce thickens.
Assemble the crunchwraps by layering cabbage leaves, nacho cheese, meat, cheese crisp, sour cream, tomatoes, lettuce, and more nacho cheese. Fold the cabbage leaves toward the center and cut in half before serving.
Notes:
- You can substitute ground chicken or pork for beef or turkey.
- Use coconut or avocado oil for a keto-friendly option.
- Feel free to add your favorite low-carb toppings or sauces to customize your crunchwrap.
