Tacos (We are a big fan of taco Tuesday in our house or tacos any other time of the week)
Ingredients:
1-2 pound of ground chicken, beef, or turkey (or meat of your choice)
Taco seasoning (I like to make my own because some of the store bought kind has some not so good ingredients and is load with a ton of sodium. I did find that Primal Palate and Siete brands has good taco seasoning if you want something quick and easy. The following recipe is one pound of meat. Just double the recipe for two pounds.
-1 tsp of chili powder
-1 tsp of garlic powder
-1/2 tsp of paprika
-1/2 tsp of cumin
-1/4 tsp of oregano
-1/4 tsp of salt (you could always add more for taste)
-1/4 tsp of pepper
Directions:
1. Cook meat through well. I usually will add a bit of water to the meat and then will add in the taco seasoning. Mix well and let water and seasonings absorb before removing from heat.
2. Serve with soft or hard tacos (we love Siete brand soft and hard tacos) and top with lettuce, olives, tomatoes, avocado/guacamole, and sour cream (For dairy free option, I love Culina or Cocojune plain yogurt. Tastes delicious.
**We love leftovers of the taco meat and will make wraps or taco salads for lunch or dinner on the go. Such a quick and easy meal.
