Ingredients:
Tacos
4 oz. raw extra-lean ground beef (4% fat or less)
1/2 cup finely chopped brown mushrooms
2 tbsp. chopped onion
1 tsp. taco seasoning mix
2 corn taco shells (flat bottomed, if available)
1/4 cup shredded lettuce
2 tbsp. pico de gallo (or fresh salsa)
Salad
1 cup lettuce
1 cup cucumber, mushrooms, or other high-volume veggies (see HG FYI)
2 tbsp. pico de gallo (or fresh salsa)
2 tsp. vinegar (balsamic, red wine, white wine, rice, or cider)
Directions:
Bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add beef, mushrooms, and onion. Cook, stir, and crumble until beef is fully cooked and veggies have softened, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with taco seasoning, and continue to cook until any excess liquid has evaporated.
Evenly divide mixture between taco shells, and top with lettuce and pico de gallo.
Toss salad ingredients in a medium bowl, and serve with tacos!
