    Keto Taco Bites - mini taco egg muffins

    Perhaps one of the most oft-repeated phrases in a parent’s lexicon is “What’s the magic word?”. And if you’ve said it, chances are you were simply reminding your children of their manners. But I have another magic word for you, one that is far more powerful than “please”. It’s a word that basically ensures that my kids will eat whatever I put in front of them, without complaint. In fact, they will gobble it up and ask for more, so you know it’s a word I use with relative frequency.

    That word is “Taco”. I don’t know what voodoo or hoodoo saying that word unleashes upon the world, but it magically makes the age-old dinnertime battle just disappear. And it doesn’t have to be in reference to real tacos, because those don’t count as healthy in my book. Just about anything taco-flavored will suffice. It even has my kids willingly devouring large salads. Taco seasoning is like fairy-dust…sprinkle a little into your meal and the whole world is a happier place.

    So when I wanted to make a fun bite-sized healthy snack for a kid-friendly New Year’s Eve party, I instantly thought of this magic word. I hit my local Safeway for healthy O Organics® “taco” supplies…grass fed ground beef, salted butter, shredded Mexican blend cheese, and of course salsa for dipping these little low carb Taco Bites. The O Organics sour cream is rich, delicious, and makes for a fun presentation.

    These were so popular among both the kids and the adults at the party, I’ve already got two requests for the recipe. And they’re so easy to make, I know I will be making them frequently. Mini Magic Taco Muffins!

    O Organics is one of my favorite lines of organic foods and it’s found exclusively at Safeway, Albertsons, and the whole Albertsons family of stores. It’s an extensive line, with everything from produce to dairy to canned goods, and it’s great value for the money. Because it offers such a great value, it makes choosing organic a real option for any household and I can feel good about what I serve my children.

    Course: Appetizer
    Cuisine: Mexican
    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 25 minutes
    Total Time: 35 minutes
    Servings: 32 mini muffins
    Calories: 329kcal

    Ingredients

    • 1 lb O Organics grass-fed ground beef
    • 3 tablespoon taco seasoning
    • 2 tablespoon O Organics salted butter melted
    • 6 large eggs
    • 6 ounces O Organics Mexican Blend shredded cheese
    • 1 cup O Organics salsa
    • Other garnish such as O Organics sour cream, sliced olives or guacamole

    Instructions

    • In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the beef until almost cooked through, breaking up the clumps with a wooden spoon. Add the taco seasoning and continue to sauté until completely cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool.
    • Preheat the oven to 350F and brush a good non-stick mini muffin pan with the melted butter. (You can also use silicone or parchment mini muffin liners, if you prefer - if your pan is not very non-stick, this is your best option). This recipe makes about 32 mini muffins so you may need to work in batches if you don’t have more than one mini muffin pan.
    • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the taco meat and 4 ounces of the shredded cheese. Whisk thoroughly to combine.
    • Fill the muffin cups to about ¾ full and sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until puffed and firm to the touch. Remove and let cool 10 minutes. Use a thin flexible spatula to run around the edge of the muffins to release.
    • Serve with your favourite taco toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
