Greek Nachos (not low carb, sorry)

 

My favorite food in the world just happens to be Greek and Mediterranean. And we love Gyros the most. We also love nachos, I mean, who doesn't? So I have combined our most loved foods into a quick and easy meal.

Yes, I create and post quite a bit of low carb, keto friendly dishes. But once a week, we add a bit of carbs. You could use low carb tortillas or make a keto pita/flat bread recipe of your choice. But for this recipe, we've gone all out carbalicious!

This recipe serves 8 easily and takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do and will decide to add it to your family's menu rotation.

Ingredients:

24 oz ground pork (you can use beef, pork, chicken, turkey or lamb)

Add a dash of salt about 1/8 tsp) and mix to combine. Let sit for 5 minutes. This will help to bring out excess moisture.
