Day Twenty

 Day Twenty..one third of the way there (that's it?)
Today's recipe is for tacos. I posted a recipe for a quick taco seasoning. Making your own seasoning is not that difficult and does not have all the excess salt or preservatives that the packaged seasoning mix has. The recipe is quite a few ingredients, but you can make a batch of the seasoning and store it in an airtight container and have for later use.

Tacos

Taco Seasoning

• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Brown the ground meat in a skillet. (I used ground turkey, which we had at the house, but ground beef also works well)

Once the meat is browned, add in about a 1/4 cup of water per pound of meat and sprinkle in about 2 tablespoons of your seasoning per pound of meat. Serve the meat over a salad or in lettuce. A good lettuce to use is Boston Bib, it keeps its shape and allows you to pick up the taco without it tearing

Serve with some guacamole, mashed avocado, jalapenos, fresh tomatoes, salsa, or anything else you desire. (just wish there was a little bit of shredded cheese) After the challenge is over, a sprinkle of cheese here or there is okay. Dairy is up in the air. Some Primal people incorporate it into their diet and others don't. Honestly, with the exception of ice cream, I haven't missed dairy at all really.
