Keto Taco Avocado Boats
Ingredients
For the taco filling
- 1 lb lean ground meat (beef, chicken, or turkey)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup yellow onions, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp coriander
- 1/4 tsp cayenne powder, optional
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup water
For assembly
- 2 avocados, large
- lime juice
- 1/2 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
- 1/4 cup red onions, diced
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
- 3 tbsp cotija cheese
- lime wedges
Steps
- Add 1 tbsp oil to a large pan and sauté ⅓ cup yellow onions over medium high heat. When it starts to get translucent, add 1 lb ground meat and break it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Once cooked through, drain any excess grease from the pan.
10 min
- Next, add 1 tbsp chili powder, ½ tsp cumin, ½ tsp paprika, ¼ tsp coriander, ¼ tsp cayenne powder, salt and pepper along with ¼ cup water and allow it to simmer over medium low heat. Once most of the water has reduced, turn off the heat.
5 min
- Cut 2 avocados in half and remove the pit. Rub lime juice on the surface to keep them from browning.
- Generously scoop the taco filling into your avocado halves and add ½ cup lettuce, ½ cup tomatoes, ¼ cup red onions, ¼ cup cilantro leaves and 3 tbsp cotija cheese on top and finish with a squeeze of lime.
