Keto Taco Seasoning
- chili powder
- garlic powder
- onion powder
- red pepper flakes
- dried oregano
- paprika
- ground cumin
One of my secrets to making the best low carb taco casserole is to use homemade taco seasoning. Something that always frustrates me about different taco seasoning mixes is that there's always a little something I'd like to adjust about them.
Making homemade taco seasoning is the easiest way to get all the flavors you love into one simple blend. It's simple to do and so worth it! You can use store-bought taco seasoning, but if you have the necessary spices on hand I recommend making it yourself.
Keto Taco Pie Toppings
- Avocado
- Tomatoes
- Jalapenos
- Extra cheese
Our favorite toppings for our keto Mexican taco casserole are exactly what you'd use for tacos in shells. I personally love avocado and tomato slices for freshness, and always enjoy jalapenos for a little extra spice.
Pico de gallo or simply cilantro would also be great additions to our low carb taco casserole recipe. If you're not worried about keeping it strictly keto, you can also add fresh corn and black beans.
