3tablespoonsolive oil - divided (you could also use coconut oil)
1.5poundsground turkey (minced turkey) - chicken and beef will work just as well
3tablespoonstaco seasoning - chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, dried oregano, paprika, ground cumin, sea salt, black pepper
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil at medium-high, and then add the ground turkey. Cook for about 7 minutes, or until done.
Drain excess juice from the pan.
Turn the heat down to low, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and about 1/4 cup of water to the turkey. Add your taco seasoning and mix well.
Place scoops of the taco meat onto your washed Romaine leaves. (Using the full leaves gives them stability for holding while eating.)
Top with whatever Paleo taco toppings sound good to you! I made mine with tomatoes, store-bought organic salsa, and our favorite homemade guacamole.
Notes
Top with your favorite: fresh organic salsa, homemade guacamole, sliced olives, diced tomatoesYou can see in my photo that there is shredded cheese as per my cousin’s request. If you are on a strict Paleo diet, do not add cheese.Leftover taco meat makes for a quick and easy breakfast too!
