Instructions

Step 1

Prepare guacamole first (so you can snack on it with chips while preparing the rest of the meal) In a small bowl, smash avocados with a fork. Mix in diced tomato, onion, and cilantro. Add lime juice. Mix. Add salt, chili flakes and garlic to taste.

Step 2

Wash and prep all veggies.

Step 3

Cook ground beef in a pan. Once completely cooked through, season as you like (Susie Q's or taco seasoning or salt and pepper).

Step 4

Remove cooked meat and place in a container that you will store leftovers in (to save on clean up later). Poor leftover grease out of the pan.

Step 5

Add olive oil to the same pan and cook diced veggies and corn.

Step 6

Add meat back into the pan to warm.

Step 7

Place 3 or 4 whole lettuce leaves on each plate and fill with meat and veggies. Top with guacamole and serve
