I do not want you to just cook a meal than flop in front of the tele or drive erratically down the road with one hand on the steering wheel while the other is stuffing crap food down your throat. I want you to sit, breathe three deep belly breaths kick in the rest-and-digest and savor the layers of flavors; really taste the sweetness of the peppers, the earthy tones of spices and the grounding of the beef.
The nice thing about making this recipe is, if you are cooking for one or two people, you have leftovers that can be prepped for later in the week or frozen for a later date. What a great way to have a healthy “fast food” meal. You can easily double this recipe to really get your food prep on! Make this once, and you will surely double it the next time.
I do not usually add tomatoes to my ground beef tacos, but this time, it just felt right to kick up the flavour meter!
This is gluten free, paleo, keto, low carb and just pure goodness for all diets and lifestyles. Recipe is below this video. The second video is a couple of ways to prep this one dish for 4 meals that you can freeze for another day or grab and go from the refrigerator during the week, heat up in your HOTLOGIC and life is one big happy warm glow from your belly to your soul! Let’s cook smart! You can find the meal prep video just above the Products mentioned in Video just to keep things neat and tidy. I can’t wait for you to make this with me and Zazu!

Add the sliced red onion stiring to coat in the remaining oil in the skillet and sauté until it becomes translucent about 2-3 minutes. Do not brown the onions.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until it's browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. If you find the beef is not breaking down easily, you can pulse it in a food processor, then add it back to the skillet.
Add the the 1 tablespoon each of the dried chilli powder, cumin, dried paprika and half a tablespoon of the dried coriander Stir well to evenly incorporate the spices.
Add the minced garlic stir to combine evenely and cook for another 30 seconds
