Ingredients
  

  • 3 Avocados Prefer Hass avocados, California-grown
  • 1 lb Taco meat of your choice (ground beef, chicken, carnitas)
  • 2 cups Black Bean and Corn Salsa
  • 1 cup Cheese
  • 1 cup Sour cream

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Next, prepare your taco meat any way you like. For this recipe, we love to use ground beef and our own taco seasoning.
  3. Then, slice your avocados and remove the seed.
  4. Place a scoopful of your meat in each avocado. Your amount will depend on the size of your "boat". We used about 1/4 cup in each.
  5. Next, add salsa to each avocado.
  6. Top with cheese and place in the oven to allow cheese to melt. This does not take long, so keep an eye on it! It should only take about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and add a dollop of sour cream to the top of each boat.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I’ve discovered that ground turkey or even a hearty lentil crumble makes a fantastic base if you're looking for something lighter than ground beef, and the flavors still sing
