Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • For the taco meat
  • 1 lb your choice of ground meat - fattier works best (I use ground lamb, veal, or beef)
  • 1 tbsp bacon fat or cooking fat of your choice
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp ground chipotle pepper - less if you want it mild
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • For the salad
  • 4 large handfuls of baby spinach or salad greens
  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes (halved)
  • 1 medium avocado
  • A few tbsp thinly sliced green onion - green part only
  • plantain chips

Instruction

  • To make the taco meat, heat a large heavy skillet over medium - medium hi heat and add your cooking fat.
  • Once the pan is very hot, add the ground meat and break up lumps with a wooden spoon so it cooks evenly. Add the spices and salt and cook a couple of minutes, stirring, until browned. Remove from heat.
  • To arrange the salads in either bowls or plates, add the greens first, then 1/4 of the taco meat, 1/4 of the tomatoes, 1/4 of the avocado, sliced, plantain chips, and garnish with sliced green onion.
  • Now sit back and enjoy this easy and delicious meal!
