Keto Microwave Taco Shells
Our Keto Microwave Taco Shells are so easy to make. We have simply taken cheese wraps and cooked them in the microwave until nicely browned. Once the cheese is melted and browned, it is shaped over a rolling pin to form a taco shape. These tacos are great for filling with ground taco meat, lettuce, and other taco fillings. They are wonderfully Low Carb as well! You can never run out of easy ways to incorporate fats into your meal plan when on the Keto diet!
Can I use other types of cheese?
We used presliced cheese wraps because they are already cut into a perfect circular shape to form a taco. However, you can use the same method with shredded cheese. You will have to calculate the calories separately based on the amount of cheese you use, but you will be able to follow the exact method below. If using shredded cheese, feel free to use any flavor of cheese you would like. Form the shredded cheese into a circular shape on the parchment paper before cooking in the microwave.
How do you know the tacos are done cooking?
The cheese tacos are done when they are evenly browned throughout. You are looking for a golden brown color. If they are dark brown, you have gone too far.
What is the best paper to use?
Please use plain white or brown parchment paper for this recipe. If the cheese wrap slices come with wax paper, remove and discard, as it is not nonstick like parchment paper.
To make the ultimate pairing, serve this with other Keto microwave meals like our Best Keto Microwave Poached Eggs and Bacon to make for a delicious avocado taco!

Ingredients
Cheddar Cheese Wrap
4 cheese wrap
Recipe Steps
steps 3
15 min
Step 1
Place a rolling pin on top of two bowls with the bowls underneath each end of the rolling pin. Doing so will serve as a mold to form the taco shells. Remove the cheese wraps from the packaging. Remove the wax paper that is attached to it. Then place it on a parchment paper-lined microwave-safe plate. Be sure the parchment paper is small enough that it won’t hit the sides of the microwave as the turntable moves. Allowing this will ruin the taco shells and deform them.Step 2
Microwave on high for 1 to 1 ½ minutes. Start with one minute, adding 30 more seconds necessary to achieve a golden brown color throughout the cheese.Step 3
When the cheese is still hot, grab the parchment paper and turn the cheese upside down onto the rolling pin. Gently allow the cheese to “drape” over the rolling pin until cooled. Remove the parchment paper and repeat with the other cheese slices.

Cannot find cheese wraps in grocery store. Teach us how to make cheese wraps.

I did it with sliced cheddar. Took a block of medium cheddar and cut it into slices (use block instead of presliced because it has less carbs) lay it flat in the air fryer on a parchment paper at 390 for about 6 min. Will have to play with the time based on slice thickness. Place parchment on a rolling pin until cheese is cool to form the taco shape. Enjoy!!

I find them at Safeway, not in the dairy section, but speciality area.

If you can't find cheese wraps, use shredded cheese. I prefer that! You can make them in a nonstick pan as well. It's fun. Be brave and give it a try!

Just microwave a pile of grated cheese. It will work.
