Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cabbage cored
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 4 tablespoons keto-friendly taco seasoning
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup tomato sauce no sugar added
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup salsa no sugar added
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 avocado sliced

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Submerge the cored head of cabbage and blanch for about 3 minutes. Carefully remove the leaves with tongs, setting aside 8 large leaves for the burritos.
  • Thin the thick part of the cabbage leaves' core with a knife for easier rolling, if necessary.
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté chopped onion until softened, about 6 minutes.
  • Stir in the taco seasoning and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart as it cooks until it's no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
  • Pour in the tomato sauce and let the mixture simmer until the sauce thickens and the turkey is fully cooked, about 4-6 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  • Place two overlapping cabbage leaves on a flat surface. Spoon the turkey mixture onto the leaves, followed by sour cream, salsa, cheddar cheese, and avocado slices.
