The Ingredients

Lean Ground Beef: Provides high-quality protein and iron while keeping saturated fat and calories lower than higher-fat beef options.

Cauliflower Rice: A low-carb, fiber-rich substitute for traditional rice that adds volume and nutrients and helps you stay full longer.

Mission Carb Balance Flour Tortillas: High in fiber and lower in net carbs, helping support digestion and satiety while keeping carbs controlled.

Reduced-Fat Cheese: Adds creamy texture and calcium with less fat and fewer calories than full-fat cheese.

Reduced-Fat Sour Cream and Light Mayonnaise: Both help to add creaminess without extra fat.

Fat-Free Greek Yogurt: Rich in protein and probiotics, it creates a creamy sauce without the extra fat of sour cream.

Onions, Cilantro, and Tomato Sauce: Add antioxidants, vitamins, and fresh flavor without adding significant calories.

Chipotle & Spices: Boost flavor so you feel satisfied without needing extra fat or sugar.

How to Make Taco Bell Style Quesaritos

Brown the lean ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain excess grease and add the taco seasoning and water, then simmer for 5 minutes.

Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Cook the onion and garlic for 2 minutes, then stir in the cauliflower rice, tomato sauce, and cumin. Cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the cilantro.

In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, light mayo, chipotle sauce, garlic powder, and salt until smooth. 

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a tortilla and sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese evenly over it. Cover with a lid and let cook until the cheese is melted. Remove the tortilla from the pan.

Repeat with the second tortilla and remaining cheese.

Place beef, cauliflower rice, sour cream, and chipotle sauce onto the cheesy side of each tortilla. Fold sides inward and roll tightly.

Place seam-side down in a skillet and toast until golden and slightly crisp.

Why This Works for Low Carb and Weight Watchers

  • The fiber in Carb Balance tortillas helps keep you full and supports digestive health.
  • Lean beef and Greek yogurt provide protein that promotes fullness and helps prevent overeating.
  • Spices, chipotle sauce, and fresh herbs create bold flavor without adding unnecessary calories or fats.
