- Place the onion and garlic on a pan greased with ghee and cook over a medium-high heat until lightly browned.
- Stir to avoid burning.
- Add the ground beef and cook until browned from all sides while mixing.
- I buy ground meat in bulk from my local farmer (here are more tips on how to save time & money on a keto diet).
- Add the chili powder and ground cumin.
- If you don't have any of these, use 1 1/2 tsp of paprika.
- Add the tomato puree and pour in the water.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Mix until well combined and cook until the sauce has reduced to about a quarter and the meat is cooked through.
- When done, set aside and prepare the vegetable topping.
- Wash and dry all the vegetables on a paper tissue.
- Halve, deseed, peel and chop the avocado and chop the tomatoes and lettuce.
- Start filling the taco shells (recipe is here - follow instructions for taco shells).
- Start with the meat mixture and top with tomatoes...

- avocado and lettuce.
- Optionally, add other toppings (grated cheddar cheese, soured cream, etc.) Enjoy! Instead of taco shells, you can make nachos (recipe is here) and serve the meat as a dip.
