directions

  • Chop onion, seed jalepeno and chop 1/4 of it very finely, slice or dice the rest and set aside for a taco topping later.
  • In a frying pan brown meat with onion and as much of the finely chopped jalepeno as you'd like (i normally only use a pinch or two).
  • Drain meat, return to frying pan and mix in 1/2 packet of taco seasoning (if you're watching carbs or sugar, if not, use the whole thing) simmer on low heat.
  • cut tomato, avocado, carefully peel lettuce leaves apart and clean them.
  • arrange tomato, avocado, jalepeno and lettuce leaves on a plate, throw a spoon in the corn, meat, cheese, sour cream and salsa and have everyone assemble tacos in the lettuce instead of taco shells.
  • IF you have leftovers make a salad and take it to work for lunch :).

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Love to cook and love to eat :) I always use the internet to find inspiration for a new meal, appetizer or dessert. Both my fiance and I have been doing great on the atkins diet for almost all of 2008. I would like to post as much as i can for others who are looking for new ideas who may be on a carb restricted diet or may be diabetic. Always looking for sugar free or low sugar desserts.
