I found this recipe on (by the way, I highly recommend this site if you are eating low-carb she's got some great recipes and they're very easy to follow!). The cream cheese gives the pancakes the necessary texture, but you really can't taste it at all. He was leery of trying this because the pancakes have cream cheese in them.but I'm glad (and so he is he!) that he gave it a try. Mike's also not a huge fan of cream cheese (as in, he won't eat it unless it's in a cheesecake or something sweet, and even then, only in small doses). Like many of the recipes I use, it's very versatile, but the recipe I show here is pretty basic - Mike doesn't like veggies much, so this is a typical 'man' meal for him - meat, cheese and eggs! It's incredibly easy, and can be made in a large pan (like a lasagna) or in small batches (individual or mini lasagnas!).

Other Sides: Tortillas + things to stuff in tortillas usually makes for a satisfying meal in itself, but to round things out I usually provide a salad or vegetables of some form.This has become a staple in my house - Mike eats it just about every week.

Chopped white onion is very common in Mexico, and Tex Mex fans such as myself will almost always have sour cream and shredded cheese too!

Taco Fixings: I like to have at least one fresh thing to stuff in tacos (pickled cabbage is my choice in this Fiesta), + a sauce (the Restaurant Style Salsa,) + avocado in some form (guac or slices or in Pico de Gallo) + coriander/cilantro.

Before serving, chop/slice, cover and microwave reheat. If you want to use one of the chicken recipes to make ahead, use boneless thigh fillets, cook, then keep whole, cover and cool, reserve every drop of leached juice. The next simplest is Fish Tacos because it's very quick to cook, then just put them in a serving dish and break into chunks with fork. The Shredded Chicken and Beef are almost as good (pork is slightly juicier) and stored similarly.

Main Taco Filling Selection: The most convenient big batch protein is Pork Carnitas because it freezes great and only requires a quick pan fry to freshen up, and stays good for several hours (tips are in Carnitas recipe notes).

See linked recipes for directions (except tortilla chips and grilled corn, see below).

Choose one or two proteins, then sides of choice.

If you cut into the Casserole right away, it can fall apart, just like lasagna! ~ Serve this Casserole with a side of Sour Cream. Remove the Casserole from the Oven and sprinkle the Cilantro, Black Olives and Tomatoes on top. Bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until the Cheese is melted. When the Casserole is done remove it from the oven, remove the foil and evenly spread the Cheese on top of the Casserole. You want the Casserole to be heated through and slightly bubbly. All ovens cook differently so check at 20 minutes.

Cover the baking dish with foil and pop it into the preheated oven and bake for 30-40 minutes. Next spread the Ground Beef or Ground Turkey mixture evenly over the first layer. Transfer the Rice and Corn mixture into the bottom of the pan and spread into an even layer. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Add 1 Tablespoon of the Chopped Cilantro into the mixture as well. Now stir the Soup mixture in with the Corn and Rice mixture. Add the Corn and the Rice to the bowl with the Peppers and Onion. In a small bowl combine the Sour Cream and the Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup, set aside. Remove the pan from the heat and cool slightly. Drain then add the Taco Mix and the Water and heat until thickened. Now add the Ground Beef or Turkey to the sautГ© pan and brown the meat.

SautГ© just until the veggies are tender, then transfer them to a large bowl. In a large sautГ© pan, add the Red Pepper, Jalapeno Pepper, Onion and the oil.
