Taco Stuffed Avocados aka “Avo-Tacos”
Shopping
3 medium ripe avocados
Juice of 2 fresh limes
1 lb. ground meat of choice (I used grass-fed beef tonight)
1/2 of a yellow onion, diced
Homemade taco seasoning:
1/2 Tbsp chili powder
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/8 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Combine spices well, you will only use about half of this mix per pound of meat, or to taste
Fresh taco toppings of choice:
diced tomatoes
fresh pico
cilantro
olives
a touch of natural cheese (optional)
Instructions
Halve avocados, brush with fresh lime juice, sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
Brown meat with the onion in a skillet over medium heat.
Once cooked through, drain well.
Add homemade taco seasoning (I add a sprinkle at a time, and taste test until it’s right) and 1 Tbsp hot water.
Simmer for 1-2 minutes until flavors combine.
Scoop hot meat into avocados.
Allow each person to top their Avo-Taco as they wish. 👌
