Avocados are a source of vitamins C, E, K, and B6, as well as riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium and potassium.
They also provide lutein, beta-carotene and omega-3 fatty acids. Avocados contain high levels of beneficial healthy fats, which can help a person feel full between meals.
Dietitian Megan Ware, RDN, reports that adding avocados to your daily diet can help prevent constipation and maintain healthy digestion. Another benefit of this fiber-rich fruit is that you will feel full for longer.
Eating an avocado every day is good for your health. Avocado consumption has risen in the past two decades.
The study showed that eating one avocado per day for 12 weeks was associated with a redistribution of belly fat in women.
Avocados have helped lower visceral fat levels in women, which reduces the likelihood of many diseases, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes
Ingredients:
●About 5 to 6 Hass avocados, halved with pit removed and slightly hollowed out with removed flesh reserved.
●1 pound lean ground beef.
●one 1.25-ounce packet taco seasoning (I used reduced sodium medium heat).
●one 6-ounce package Horizon Organic Mexican Style Shredded Cheese, divided.
●1/4 cup water.
●1 or 2 Roma tomatoes or your favorite tomato, diced small.
●cilantro, for garnishing.
How To Make Avocado Tacos:
Step1: Halve the avocados, remove the pit, and using a spoon, widen and deepen the hole where the pit is so you can accommodate more taco filling.
Step2: Alternatively, use a small paring knife to score the area vertically and horizontally, and then use spoon to carefully remove the small chunks. This is the visually neater method but either way works; set the avocado halves and the flesh that you removed aside.
Step3: To a large skillet, add the beef and cook over medium high heat for about 5 minutes, or until beef is cooked through and no longer pink; stir intermittently and crumble beef as it cooks. Evenly sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef, add the water, stir to combine, and cook for about 3 minutes.
Step4: Turn off the heat and add most of the package of shredded cheese, reserving about 1/2 cup to use for garnishing.
Step5: Stir to combine and encourage the cheese to melt, it will only take about 1 minute
Step6: Add about 1/4 cup beef to each avocado half, or as desired. Top with tomatoes, reserved avocado flesh, evenly sprinkle with reserved cheese, garnish with cilantro, and serve immediately.
