- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 1/4 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 2/3 cup water * See notes
- 2 3/4 cups salsa
- 6 keto tortillas cut in half

Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish and set it aside.

In a non-stick pan, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until no longer brown. Remove excess liquid. Add the taco seasoning and water and let it simmer for 5 minutes, until thick. Stir through the salsa.

Lay half the sliced tortillas into the bottom of the baking dish. Top with half the beef mixture and half the shredded Mexican cheese. Add the remaining sliced tortillas, followed by the beef, then the remaining cheese.

Cover the baking dish with tin foil and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese has melted.

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it for five minutes, before serving.
