"Tacos"


I live in New Mexico, so I am surrounded by tempting Mexican food all the time. So I decided to try my hand at making my own PINK friendly tacos.


Here's what you need:

1lb extra lean ground beef
1 small onion, diced (I used white)
Non-stick cooking spray
2T ground cumin
1T chili powder
1c water
Sea salt and pepper to taste


Here's what you do:

Lightly spray large frying pan with cooking spray. Sautée onions until they start to look transparent.


Add ground beef. Sprinkle with sea salt and ground pepper. Cook until meat is browned.


In a small container mix cumin and chili powder together
**note - you can decrease the chili powder to lessen the spiciness.  I like it spicy**


Add chili powder and cumin mixture to the meat


Add water and cook on medium heat about 10 minutes.


Since I am on reset, I served this in fresh romaine leaves and topped with some fresh diced grape tomatoes. I served it with a side of mushrooms and a spinach salad. You can top with whatever toppings you like and can even *gasp* use taco shells!!!

Enjoy!!!
