4 Servings | 10 Minutes Prep Time | 25 Minutes Total Time
Ingredients
1 Lb. Ground Beef or Ground Turkey
2 Avocados
½ Cup Shredded Cheese (a Mexican blend would be perfect)
2 Romaine Lettuce Hearts
1 Lime
8 Ounces of tomatoes (chopped – about 2 Roma tomatoes)
¼ Cup Sour Cream
2 Tbsp Chipotle Sauce
¼ Cup Salsa
¼-½ Onion (chopped)
Spices – Taco Seasoning, Cumin & Chili Powder
Directions
- Wash lettuce and towel dry about 12 good pieces for the “taco shells”.
- Heat up a pan and throw the onion in and let cook partially.
- Add ground meat and let brown, you can drain the grease after that.
- Cut up tomatoes and avocados during this time. All of this should be split into 4 servings.
- Add all of the seasoning, I use a heavy hand for all three.
- Add the salsa and let simmer.
- Mix the sour cream and chipotle sauce together in a bowl and sprinkle it with chili powder. This will be split into 4 servings as well.
- To plate, lay lettuce down like bowls and then add the meat evenly. I split ¼ of the total meat into 3 lettuce “tacos”.
- Add tomatoes and avocado on top, sprinkled the cheese evenly and drop a dollop of chipotle sour cream onto each.
- Juice lime over the top.
- Enjoy!
NOTES:
Messy: I rolled mine up a bit to eat and keep the yumminess from spilling out.
Leftovers: You can make these into a taco salad too, just cut up the lettuce and throw everything on top. Make sure to juice lime and salt over the avocado to preserve.
