Avocado Tacos

 Tacos were something we got later as teens. I don't recall ever having them as a little person. And ours were fairly plain: a hard shell, flat or bent; ground beef, seasoned somewhat; cheese; lettuce and tomato. Guac was something we didn't have but still, eating a taco on a Friday night was a good break from the regular stuff!

  • 1 lb. Ground beef
  • 1 Packet of taco seasoning
  •   Onion chopped
  • 1 C. Shredded taco blend cheese
  • 4 Tbsp. Sour cream
  • 4 Tbsp. Salsa
  •   C. Green onions chopped
  • 2 Ripe avocados

  1. Heat the ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium-high heat. 
  2. Cook until the meat is completely browned and the onions have softened.
  3. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
  4. Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and stir the meat to combine.
  5. Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pit.
  6. Scoop out the flesh from the inside of the avocados.
  7. Fill the avocado shells with the taco meat and top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and salsa.
  8. Add green onions for garnish before serving
