Ingredients

6 servings
  • 1 medium ripe avocado ((pitted, peeled and cut into chunks))
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable/canola oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable or canola oil
  • 2 medium bell peppers (any color), (cut into bite-sized strips)
  • 1 medium onion, (cut into thin wedges)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • One 1-ounce package taco seasoning mix
  • ⅔ cup water
  • 6 cups torn romaine lettuce
  • 1 medium tomato, (chopped)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups crushed tortilla chips

Steps

  1. In a blender, add all of the dressing ingredients. Cover, and blend on medium speed for 30 seconds or until smooth. Pour the dressing into a small bowl. Cover, and refrigerate until serving time.

  2. In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-heat. Add the bell peppers and onion; cook for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Remove the vegetables from the skillet; set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, cook the beef over medium-high heat for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Add the taco seasoning and water; heat as directly on the package.

  4. Place 1 cup of lettuce on each of 6 plates. Top with the beef mixture, vegetables, tomato, cheese and chips. Drizzle dressing on top.
