Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 8 Lettuce leaves (large, for shells)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Drain excess fat from the skillet if necessary.
Step 4
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef, add water, and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the water has mostly evaporated, and the flavors have melded.
Step 5
While the beef is cooking, prepare the lettuce leaves by washing and drying them thoroughly. These will serve as your low-carb taco shells.
Step 6
Once the beef is ready, assemble the tacos by placing a lettuce leaf on a plate, followed by a portion of the taco beef.
Step 7
Top with shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, slices of avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
Step 8
Repeat the assembly process for all the tacos.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your Low Carb Crunchy Beef Tacos.
