Paleo Beef Enchiladas
These Paleo Beef Enchiladas are a grain-free take on the classic! It's easy, filling, and can be made nightshade-free.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 white onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 lb shredded beef
- 1 ½ cup enchilada sauce use this sauce for AIP/nightshade-free
- 8 grain free tortillas I use Siete almond flour tortillas, see notes for AIP
- 1 avocado sliced
- 2 tbsp cilantro chopped
- 2 tbsp green onion chopped
- 1 lime quartered
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and set aside a 9x13" casserole dish lightly greased with avocado oil.
- Heat the avocado oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool slightly before combining with the shredded beef and 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce.
- Add 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce to the casserole dish and spread evenly.
- If using the Siete almond flour tortillas, heat for 15 seconds to slightly soften. Add 3-4 spoonfuls of the shredded beef to the center of one tortilla and roll tightly. Add to the casserole dish. Repeat for all of the tortillas.
- Top the tortillas with the remainder of the enchilada sauce and spread evenly.
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until fully warmed.
- Allow to cool slightly before with topped with avocado, cilantro, green onion, lime wedges, and other toppings of your choice.
Notes
Siete brand tortillas are not AIP-compliant (except for their burrito size tortillas which are AIP compliant). I have not tried to make this recipe with homemade cassava flour tortillas, but I'm sure it would work! I also have an AIP zucchini enchilada recipe.
