One of my favourite recipes here is Taco Pie. It was a popular recipe in our household back when I was eating whole grains.

But, now that I’ve cut out whole grains, we never eat it.

However, I knew there was a way I could enjoy the flavour of tacos again without the carbs. Sure, I could enjoy taco salad (which I do!) but I really wanted to try something different.

When I came out with my recipe for Low Carb Pie Crust, I knew I was on to something! I figured that anything I made before with a whole grain crust could now be used in this low carb crust.

Boy was I right!

The savoury taco flavour combined with the lightly sweet coconut flour crust is the perfect combination! The whole family loves this recipe, especially when you top it off with some full fat sour cream and avocado

If coconut four isn’t your thang, or you don’t have time to make the crust, then you could leave out the crust entirely, it still tastes amazing.
