When I was younger, I took a long time to warm up to the idea of “steak and eggs” as a breakfast item. It’s safe to say that with my cooking history and the point I’m at in my cooking career, steak and eggs is not only an essential part of a balanced breakfast, it also lends itself to create an incredible low carb breakfast burrito.

For this rendition of a Keto breakfast burrito I’m taking a hiatus from the cheese blanket and keeping it more breakfast themed with an egg based tortilla. Before you question this recipe and say to yourself, “So he just made an omelet?”, technically you wouldn’t be wrong, that’s what this is, but if you open up your taste bud brain just a bit, a burrito is also just a breaded omelet.

To achieve this recipe it’s best you get that steak ultra thin, i’m talking paper thin. The technique of freezing it and using a mandolin to cut it works best. The sautĂ©ed mushrooms and onions are incredible and you’ll definitely find yourself sampling from the pan prior to the build. The combo of all these ingredients might make you question your younger self like it did me, and ask, “do I really want to wait years to become the champion of steak and eggs”?

INGREDIENTS

Mushroom and Onion Mixture:

  • 1 8 oz pack of sliced cremini or button mushrooms
  • 1 onion thinly sliced
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup chopped parsley
  • 2 tbsp butter

Egg Tortillas:

  • 8 eggs
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 2 tbsp butter 1 tbsp per tortilla

The Steak:

  • 1/2 lb Top Round Steak cut ultra thin
  • 2 tbsp soya sauce
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 slices provolone cheese

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Start with the mushrooms

  1. Add the butter to a medium high pan. When the butter starts to foam, add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onions become slightly softened.
  2. To the pan of onions, add the mushrooms and sauté for about 7 minutes or until the mushrooms become browned and reduced in size. Add the garlic and the parsley and sauté for about a minute or until the garlic is fragrant. Turn off the heat and set aside.

For the egg tortilla

  1. Whisk the eggs in a bowl until they are blended. Add a pinch of pepper and the shredded mozzarella cheese.
  2. To a large non stick pan on medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter making sure it covers the whole pan.
  3. Cook the egg slow and low until there is no longer any wet egg on the surface. Slide the egg off the pan and set aside on a piece of parchment paper.

For the steak:

  1. To cut the steak ultra thin, freeze it and carefully use a mandolin to slice it.
  2. Add the thin cut steak to a bowl or Ziploc bag. Add the garlic and onion powder along with the soy sauce and olive oil and mix well letting the marinate sit for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add about a teaspoon of olive oil to a medium high pan. When the oil is shimmering, add the steak and fry for about 2-3 minutes or until the steak is cooked through. Place three slices of provolone on top of the steak. Add a bit of water to the pan and cover the steak until the water has evaporated and the cheese is melted (about 2 minutes).

Assembly:

  1. With the egg tortilla on a flat surface, add the half the steak to the center. Cover with half the mushrooms and onions. Tuck in the sides of the egg and roll it over itself making sure the burrito is fully closed and the ingredients are packed inside. Slice and enjoy.

This keto caramel pecan turtle cheesecake is the best turtle cheesecake you will ever enjoy. It’s keto-friendly and so delicious. You must try it!

INGREDIENTS  

Cheesecake Crust

  • 2 tbsp lard
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup almond flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 1 tbsp Swerve Sweetener, powdered
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Cheesecake

  • 32 ounces (or 4 blocks) softened cream cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 œ cup Swerve Sweetener, powdered
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice

Turtle Cheesecake Topping:

  • œ cup-3/4 cup chopped walnut/pecans
  • Drizzle dark chocolate and caramel

INSTRUCTIONS 

Start by Making the pie crust.

  • Melt the butter
  • Add the lard to the melted butter.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the 3 large eggs.  Beat the eggs until fluffy. Then add the eggs to the butter mixture.
  • Add the remaining dry crust ingredients and mix the dough with your hands until it forms into a dough.
  • Spray the bottom of your pan with nonstick cooking spray.  Firmly press the dough into the bottom of the pan with your fingers until it’s evenly distributed throughout the pan. You can create a thicker edge around the outside of the pan.  (I prefer this) . This is not the type of dough you can roll out with a rolling pin.
  • Bake the crust at 350 degrees first for about 10 minutes.  Then remove it and allow the crust to cool while you make the cheesecake center.  You will add the cheesecake center and bake it again.

Next make the Cheesecake:

  • In a mixing bowl add softened cream cheese and eggs and blend.
  • Add in sour cream and blend.
  • Add swerve sifting in slowly as you blend together.
  • Add lemon juice and almond extract and finish blending until smooth.
  • Pour mixture into a 9” Springform pan. Pour batter to 2/3 full in height.
  • Bake 350 degrees uncovered for 45-60 min and check. Cheesecake should be rising and lightly browned. Bake for another 20-25 minutes watching closely. The outside parameter should be firm yet the center somewhat soft.
  • Once done pull out let cool then place in refrigerator to chill and continue to firm before serving.
  • When serving drizzle dark chocolate on top of the cake and add œ cup to Ÿ cup chopped walnuts and pecan mixture to top and finish with a reduced sugar caramel sauce drizzle.
