Seasonings and Liquid:
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- ½ cup (120ml) water
Toppings (optional):

Instructions
- Craft delicate almond flour tortillas following the designated recipe, or explore alternative low-carb vessels like crispy coconut tortillas, melted cheese shells, or rustic taco bowls.
- Place a spacious skillet over medium-high thermal intensity, allowing the surface to warm thoroughly.
- Introduce ground beef to the heated pan, fragmenting the meat with a robust utensil as it caramelizes and transforms from pink to rich brown, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle meticulously measured taco seasoning across the browned protein, complementing with 120 milliliters () of ambient temperature water.
- Reduce thermal settings, allowing the seasoned mixture to gently simmer and condense, creating a luxurious, cohesive sauce that clings perfectly to the meat – typically 2-3 minutes.

- Simmering transforms ground beef from bland to bold, allowing seasonings to deeply penetrate and create rich, layered textures.
- Tortilla temperature impacts structural integrity, preventing frustrating breakage during assembly and eating.
- Grease management determines the overall mouthfeel and prevents soggy, unappetizing taco fillings.
- Immediate serving guarantees maximum enjoyment, capturing peak crispness and temperature for an ideal dining experience.
