(from desert.rose32’s recipe box)

Categories: keto

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe avocados
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2/3 c. shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1/2 c. shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 c. quartered grape tomatoes
  • Sour cream, for topping

Directions

  1. Halve and pit avocados. Using a spoon, scoop out a bit of avocado, creating a larger well. Dice removed avocado and set aside to use later. Squeeze lime juice over all avocados (to prevent browning!).

  2. In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and taco seasoning, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and drain fat.

  3. Fill each avocado half with beef, then top with reserved avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and a dollop sour cream.
