Taco is a wonderful food and also good when on a keto diet or any other low carb diet but you should be aware that some of the spices you buy in the store contain additions that are not good for you. Instead you can just simply make your own taco seasoning mix.

taco mix

Taco seasoning mix

2 tablespoons cumin
1 tablespoon paprika powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
0.5 tsp black pepper

Mix together the spices and store them in a jar with a lid.

You then use the taco spice mix when you make your taco from minced meat. Perfect food for your keto diet.

Taco Mince, 4 servings

400g minced meat, either beef or mixed
Taco Seasoning (see recipe above)
3 cloves garlic
1 red onion
2 peppers
1 cup water
0.5-1 tsp salt

Divide the onions in half and then cut into thin slices. Shred the peppers thinly. Fry the crushed garlic, onions, peppers and spices in oil (olive oil or coconut oil) until onions become soft. Add the ground meat. Pour in the water. Let simmer for a few minutes. Season with more salt and pepper.

The entire dish can be served together with one of the many sauces that is keto diet friendly.
