KETO Friendly Taco Skillet (Appetizer Or Meal)

One delicious serving of  Cheesy
Taco & Vegetable Skillet.

Ingredients:

1 pound grass fed ground beef

1 large yellow, red or orange bell pepper, finely chopped

3 medium stalks of celery, diced

1 medium red or yellow onion, chopped

2 - 3 ounces cream cheese

2 - 3 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 - 2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

1 teaspoon dried cilantro (2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro)

1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper flakes

1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt

2 cups shredded cheddar or colby/jack cheese (small grate)

sour cream (optional)

3 green onions, chopped (optional)

sliced avocado (optional)

pork rinds (optional)

Method:

Brown the beef, in a large skillet, over medium-high heat. Once the meat is browned, stir in the vegetables and cream cheese. Cook and stir for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle the seasonings over the meat and vegetables. Cook for another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. 

I used a large grate, but a smaller
grate would melt better.

If desired, garnish with sour cream, green onions and/or sliced avocado. Serve as is for a meal or with pork rinds as an appetizer. Makes 5 servings.

Notes:

Even though this is a KETO dish it can be enjoyed by everyone.
