serves 4-8
Ingredients

• 4 ripe avocados
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 2/3 c. shredded Mexican cheese
• 1/2 c. shredded lettuce
• 1/2 c. quartered grape tomatoes
• Sour cream, for topping

Preparation

1. Halve and pit avocados. Using a spoon, scoop out a bit of avocado, creating a larger well. Dice removed avocado and set aside to use later. Squeeze lime juice over all avocados (to prevent browning!).
2. In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and taco seasoning, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and drain fat. 
3. Fill each avocado half with beef, then top with reserved avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and a dollop sour cream.
