Enchiladas de Carne (con Tortilla de Queso y Vegetales Keto)
Beef Enchiladas (with Cheese Tortilla and Keto Vegetables, topped with Cream and Cabbage)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly confirm cheese-based tortillas or request the filling to be served 'deconstructed' in a bowl with keto toppings. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Nicaraguan food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-friendly version of traditional Nicaraguan enchiladas. Instead of corn tortillas, a cheese-based tortilla (or simply served as a bowl) is filled with seasoned shredded beef, then topped with a fresh cabbage salad, a drizzle of crema nicaragüense, and a mild, sugar-free tomato sauce.
Key ingredients
Shredded beef, cheese (e.g., mozzarella/cheddar for tortilla), cabbage, tomato, onion, bell pepper, cream (crema nicaragüense), salt, pepper, olive oil.
How to make it keto
Explicitly confirm cheese-based tortillas or request the filling to be served 'deconstructed' in a bowl with keto toppings. Ensure cabbage salad and tomato sauce are sugar-free.
