Picante Beef Lettuce-Style Kale Cups
Uses: ground beef, kale, tomato, cucumber, picante sauce
Ingredients:
- 5 ounces ground beef
- 4 to 6 large kale leaves or 1 cup chopped kale
- 1/4 cup chopped tomato
- 1/4 cup cucumber matchsticks
- 1 tablespoon picante sauce
Instructions:
- Cook ground beef until browned and season with taco-style spices.
- If using large kale leaves, trim the thick stems and warm the leaves briefly so they are easier to fold. If using chopped kale, use it as a bowl base instead.
- Spoon beef into the kale leaves or over chopped kale.
- Top with tomato, cucumber, and picante sauce.
- Eat as hand-held cups or as a fresh taco bowl.
Why it works: It gives taco flavor with lots of freshness and crunch from the summer vegetables.
Optional: Add cheddar or guacamole for a richer version.
