Get ready to start planning a weekly taco night with your family after you try out the recipe I’ll be sharing today. The recipe makes the most addictive paleo ground beef tacos with homemade crunchy taco shells. The taco shells are fantastic and don’t even taste paleo, plus they’re low carb and 100% paleo approved thanks to some smart ingredient choices like almond flour, coconut flour, and psyllium husk. These ingredients keep the carbs low while providing a perfectly crunchy texture that won’t break or crumble.Of course, it wouldn’t be a taco without the filling and mine is made with ground beef, tomato paste, savory herbs and spices, and a few other goodies. When you put the two together, it’s like magic every time.
