Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

Beef

• For the juiciest Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Taquitos, use 80/20 ground beef.
• Lean beef works, but it won’t deliver the same rich flavor.

Bacon

• Cook bacon separately to keep it crispy.
• This step ensures the filling stays flavorful, not greasy.

Onion

• A small amount of onion adds classic cheeseburger flavor.
• Reduce or skip it if you want ultra-strict keto.

Cheese Blend

• Cheddar boosts flavor while mozzarella helps bind the filling.
• This combo keeps the taquitos creamy and structured.

Cheese Shells

• Use thick-cut deli cheese slices only.
  Thin slices or pre-shredded cheese won’t form proper shells.
