So, if you can have Low Carb Fajitas on a large cheese tortilla why couldn’t you have it inside a zero carb crepe?  I hope this is proof that you can.  All the flavor and none of the carbs in a flour tortilla and they are very easy to make.  If you happen to end up with any  of the meat-pepper mix, it makes a terrific breakfast with an egg or two on top and if truth be told, I try to always make a little extra to have a couple of days later for dinner.  You will need one recipe of 12 Flaxseed Meal Crêpes for your low carb beef fajita crepes.

Low Carb Fajitas

Low Carb FajitasLow Carb Fajitas. You know, Fajitas can be made and served a jillion ways and this is the way I do them. We are going to do beef and you can certainly use chicken (thighs as the meat is so much better).  I used a flat iron steak for a couple of reasons.  It is quite tender and it slices well for fajitas.  You will not see any green peppers in mine because um, I simple don’t like them and if you do, then please use them.  Of course what makes these low carb is using a cheese tortilla instead of the high carby ones you most often see in your grocery store. Who needs an additional 25g carbs (50g for two which is what is most often served)?   If you don’t want to go to the trouble of even making the cheese tortilla (they are good though) then you can just pile your ingredients on the plate.  If you like fajitas and or Mexican foods well enough then double or triple the dry mixed spices Taco Seasoning and you will have them for next time.  I do use the taco seasoning in quite a few recipes on the site.  I serve mine with Pico de Gallo, a dollop of Crème Fraîche or sour cream, and Creamy Smooth Guacamole to the side and what could could be better?

If you are interested in eating these low carb fajitas in the more traditional way they are terrific using Keto Pork Rind Wraps too. Take a look…you’ll see why.

Notes
  1. Cheese tortilla is included in nutritionals.
  2. If possible, please try to grate your own cheese. Processed grated cheeses have some kind of crud mixed in to keep the cheese from clumping.
  3. I used a flat iron steak for a couple of reasons. It is quite tender and because of its thickness each ¼” piece can be cut lengthwise to get the strips you are looking for.
  4. This is an easy prep ahead meal.
