✅Beef Enchiladas with Salsa Verde
Serves 7; Yield: 7 enchiladas
Total Carbs/Serving: 8.9g
Total Net Carbs/Serving: 6.4g
Nutrition: 450 Calories/17.9g Protein/35.2g Fat/8.9g Carbs/2.4g Fiber/6.4 Net Carbs

➡Ingredients
7 Coconut wraps
2 tbsp. Coconut oil, Olive oil or fat of choice
1 lb. Ground beef
1 tbsp. Taco seasoning (see recioe below)
*1 ¼ C Salsa verde (see recipe below)
2/3 C Sour cream
2 tbsp. Unsalted butter
1/8 tsp. Guar gum (optional)
½ – 1 C water, divided
1 C Shredded Mexican cheese blend
2 oz. Queso Fresco cheese, crumbled (optional)

🔔Notes:
*You can also get salsa verde from most grocery stores. Just check the nutrition label and ingredient list for carb count and added sugars, respectively.
**If you are not adding Queso Fresco, I’d recommend adding more of the Mexican cheese instead.

➡Complete Directions:
1. Begin by making your salsa verde (see directions below).
2. Preheat oven to 350. Oil a 9 x 13 baking dish with fat of choice; set aside.
3. In a medium skillet, brown your ground beef; about half way through, mix in your taco seasoning. When the ground beef is browned, cover and set aside.
4. In a small pot, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the guar gum, making sure there are no lumps. Add in sour cream and slowly stir in ¼ to1/2 cup of water (if making salsa verde, use the water from cooking the tomatillos and jalapenos). You do not want a watery sauce; the sauce should be smooth and creamy. Stir until sour cream is completely dissolved. Cover and set a side.
5. Add ¼ C of the salsa verde to your baking dish and spread along the bottom.
6. To make the enchiladas, add 1/7 of the beef near the bottom third of the wrap. Drizzle a little of the sour cream sauce on top of the beef. Fold the wrap over the beef, slightly tucking the end under the beef. Fold the other side over (tucking back in any beef that may fall out the ends) and place the seam side down in your baking dish. Repeat with the remaining wraps. If possible, try to include a little space between each enchilada to allow for sauce to drip in between each.
7. Pour the salsa verde evenly over the enchiladas.
8. Sprinkle the Mexican cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
9. Using a spoon, drizzle the sour cream sauce over the enchiladas.
10. Next, if using Queso Fresco, sprinkle on top of the enchiladas.
11. Bake the enchiladas for 20-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
