TACO SKILLET

Quick, easy, low-carb, keto-friendly…TACO SKILLET is all the things!  This creation was inspired by my mother.  She was awesome at throwing whatever we had in the fridge into a skillet, creating an absolutely delicious dinner.  I picked up her skills and can create something out of nothing…most of the time.  Sometimes we end up with a flop, but not this one – ENJOY!

Yields 4 servings

Ingredients:

1.5 lbs grass-fed ground beef

1 can Rotel tomatoes, strained

1-2 zucchini, sliced

1 orange bell pepper, sliced

1 tsp minced garlic

1 tsp sea salt

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground corriander

1 tbsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp olive oil

Shredded cheese (I use a monterrey jack/cheddar blend.)

Sour cream

Instructions:

1. Heat pan and olive oil. (I use a wok pan to cook this dish.)
2. Add zucchini, bell pepper and garlic.  Let simmer until the zucchini starts to soften about 3-5 minutes.
3. Add ground beef to pan.  Sprinkle beef with salt, cumin, corriander and smoked paprika. Mix the spices in to the meat as it browns about 5 minutes, breaking the meat into large chunks.
4. When the ground beef is just about cooked through, add the strained Rotel (tomatoes only).  Let simmer and stir about 3-5 minutes.
5. Serve.  Garnish with shredded cheese and sour cream.

(This dish is perfect for leftovers!)
