The Most Delicious & Nutritious Taco Meat!
I am calling this taco meat, but you can stuff this flavorful mixture into a tortilla to make a burrito, pile it on a sweet potato, or make it into a bowl with some rice! However you decide to eat it, I promise that you will love it!
I use very lean ground beef to keep the fat and calories down, I amp up the flavor with a delicious tomato-chicken bouillon powder and tons of spices, I add volume with potatoes, and I add beans to bring the fiber! All of the extras in this ground beef mixture really make the difference, and turn the basic into amazing on so many levels!
If you are looking for a great meal prep idea, this one is for you! You will not be sorry to see this leftover in your refrigerator the next day! It warms quickly in the microwave for a quick lunch, and even a meal on the go!
