- 8 large Romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 sliced Avocado
- 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro

Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the beef from the skillet using a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper to the same skillet. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the pepper is tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Return the browned beef to the skillet, and add cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir all ingredients together until well combined. Let it cook for another 3-4 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 6
While the beef mixture cooks, prepare the lettuce leaves by rinsing them under cold water and patting them dry with a paper towel.
Step 7
Scoop a generous portion of the beef mixture into each lettuce leaf.
Step 8
Top each with slices of avocado, a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy these fresh, flavorful Whole30 beef burritos!
