Ingredients
- 2 keto tortillas or low-carb wraps
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- ½ cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- ¼ cup diced red onion
- ½ cup zucchini, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
Why these ingredients work:
Low-carb tortillas create the perfect crispy base, while melty cheese binds everything together. The vegetables add freshness, crunch, and natural sweetness for balance.
Ingredient Notes
- Keto Tortillas: Choose wraps with 2–3g net carbs for best results.
- Cheese: Mozzarella melts beautifully, while cheddar adds sharp flavor — or mix both!
- Vegetables: Swap based on what’s in your fridge. Spinach, broccoli, or cauliflower rice work great too.
- Oil: Avocado oil is ideal for high heat, but olive oil works just fine.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Sauté the Vegetables
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add peppers, onion, zucchini, and mushrooms. Sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp and lightly caramelized. The colors will brighten and the aroma will be irresistible.
2. Warm the Tortilla
Remove veggies and set aside. Place one keto tortilla in the same pan over medium-low heat. Let it warm for 30 seconds until flexible and lightly golden underneath.
3. Add Cheese & Filling
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly across the tortilla. Spoon sautéed vegetables over one side, then top with the remaining cheese. The melting cheese acts like delicious edible glue.
4. Fold & Crisp
Fold the tortilla in half. Cook 1–2 minutes per side until the exterior turns beautifully crisp and the inside becomes creamy and melty.
5. Slice & Serve
Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for one minute, then slice into wedges. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve hot!
Serving Suggestions
This KETO TORTILLA WITH CHEESE AND VEGETABLES pairs wonderfully with:
- Fresh avocado slices or guacamole
- Sour cream or keto ranch dip
- A simple arugula salad
- Sugar-free salsa or pico de gallo
It also makes an excellent brunch option with scrambled eggs on the side!
Pro Tips & Variations
For extra protein, add cooked chicken, turkey, or shrimp. Love spice? Toss in jalapeños or red pepper flakes. Switch cheeses to pepper jack for heat or feta for tang. Store cooked tortillas in the fridge for up to three days and reheat in a skillet to bring back that crispy texture. Avoid microwaving, as it softens the wrap too much.
Storage Information
- Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Warm in a skillet over medium heat or air fry for 2 minutes.
- Freezing: Not recommended — vegetables release moisture when thawed.
