Low Carb Mexican Casserole
One of the dishes that I have made several times is this Mexican Casserole.
The original recipe calls for ground meat but I used ground turkey in mine. I am trying to watch the calories as well as the carbs.
This recipe goes together quickly and is quite tasty. I serve it with sour cream and chives and a side salad and I am good to go.
I am finding that I don't really miss the breads and pastas and rice. I don't even miss the sweets. I do have some dark chocolate each day. That's my treat.
For this casserole, brown the meat, add in the tomatoes and taco seasoning and cook until heated through. Place in casserole dish and add cheese. Bake and eat.
