Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lbs ground beef
- 2 large medium ripe plantains peeled and diced
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 can black beans drained and rinsed
- 2-3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tsp taco seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Cilantro chopped
Dressing
- 1 avocado
- 1/4 cup yogurt of choice I used a dairy free coconut yogurt
- 1 tsp garlic infused olive oil or 1 tsp olive oil and a clove of garlic
- Juice of half a lemon
- Salt to taste
- Water
Instructions
- First, brown your ground beef in a large skillet. Alternatively, you can cook your beef in one skillet and veggies in another so they cook at the same time.
- If using the same pan, remove your beef to a bowl once done cooking. Add 1 tbsp of olive oil and the coconut oil and melt on medium heat. Add the chopped plantains and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-10 minutes until they are beginning to brown on the edges.
- Add the bell pepper to the plantains and more oil if needed. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the peppers are soft.
- While veggies are cooking, make your dressing. Combine all ingredients together in a small food processor or blender, starting with 1/4 cup of water. Blend until smooth and add water as needed to reach desired consistency. I like something that is runny and pourable vs dippable.
- Once veggies are cooked, add the beef and beans along with the salt and taco seasoning to the pepper and plantains. Mix to combine
- Serve as is, over a bed of lettuce, or rice. Drizzle the sauce on top and some fresh chopped cilantro and enjoy!
