Ingredients
Scale
Cheese Wraps
- 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
Filling
- 16 ounces ground beef
- 1/2 medium onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cheese wraps.
- Sauté Filling: In a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the ground beef, sliced onion, and bell pepper until the vegetables are soft and the beef is thoroughly browned. Drain any excess grease to keep it keto-friendly.
- Add Seasonings and Cream Cheese: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, cream cheese, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking and stirring until the cream cheese is completely melted and the mixture is well combined.
- Prepare Cheese Wraps: On a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, evenly distribute the shredded Monterey Jack cheese in 8 circular piles. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the cheese looks lace-like.
- Assemble Roll Ups: Allow the cheese circles to cool for a minute or two until they become pliable but still soft. Place a layer of the meat and vegetable filling onto each cheese circle, then gently roll the cheese around the filling to form a wrap. Let the roll ups cool further to harden before serving.
Notes
- Use parchment paper for easy removal of cheese wraps from the baking sheet.
- Allow cheese wraps to cool just enough to handle; too hot and they will be too soft to roll, too cold and they may crack.
- You can customize the filling by adding mushrooms or substituting ground steak for beef for more authentic flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently to maintain texture.
- Ensure to drain excess grease from the cooked beef to keep the dish keto-compliant and less oily.
