Ingredients

  • 1 pound grass fed ground beef

  • 1/3 cup water

Instructions

  • In a large cast iron skillet or non stick pan, brown meat until just about cooked through, breaking into small crumbles.

  • Serve on its own, in a taco, over a salad or stuffed in a quesadilla. To make an easy taco use a corn tortilla and layer it with lettuce, beef, shredded cheddar, greek yogurt, tomatoes and onions.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 5 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave for about 60 seconds.
  • You can also freeze this cauliflower taco meat for up to 3 months. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight or reheat in a skillet or microwave until defrosted.
