Recipe Ingredients

  • ½ Kilogram Ground Beef For this delicious recipe choose lean ground beef. You can also swap this ingredient for ground turkey if you prefer.
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder Adds a savory note you’ll love!
  • 1 Teaspoon Onion Powder This handy powder brings a delightful onion flavor to the beef.
  • 1 Teaspoon Dried Parsley Dried is perfect for this recipe but you can also swap it for fresh. If you do choose fresh be sure to add a little extra and chop the herbs very fine before tossing them in.
  • ½ Red Bell Pepper Diced - For color and crunch choose a red bell pepper. You can also choose to swap this pepper with a different variety of bell pepper.
  • 1 Cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese Adds creamy richness to the cheese sauce and makes it high in protein.
  • ¼ Cup Almond Milk The smooth and nutty flavor of almond milk makes a tasty sauce in this recipe but if you prefer you can trade it for another non-dairy milk.
  • ½ Shredded Cheddar Cheese A little cheddar adds sharp cheese flavor to the burrito. If you prefer you can substitute this ingredient for a low-calorie shredded cheese or a different variety of shreds.
  • 1 Tablespoon of Enchilada Seasoning Look for this seasoning blend near the taco seasoning packets or in the baking and spice aisle of your local store.
