INGREDIENT NOTES AND THEIR KETO SUBSTITUTIONS:
FLANK STEAK:
- It is used to make the wrap, and it is very flavorful and gets soft quickly. You can also use the rib eye, sirloin, or ground beef instead for this purpose.
JALAPEÑOS:
- Jalapenos will add the real spiciness to the wrap and also include the mild, earthy flavor. It also provides the freshness. Serrano pepper, green chilies, or crushed red pepper flakes are the best substitutes.
CREAM CHEESE:
- It adds indulgence and creaminess to the filling. It will balance the spicy flavor and add the healthy fat content. Mascarpone cheese or ricotta are the best substitutes.
CHEDDAR CHEESE:
- Cheddar cheese will provide the sharp taste and also boost the creaminess in the filling. Use the mozzarella, Colby, or pepper jack to make it spicier.
MAYONNAISE:
- Add the mayonnaise to provide the indulgent and smooth texture in the dish. You can also use the avocado oil mayo or egg mayonnaise instead.
KETO TORTILLAS:
- Keto tortillas are used to wrap the filing and they maintain the keto macros. Use the lettuce, cheese, or cabbage leaves instead of tortillas for the filling.
