Grass-fed beef lettuce ‘canoes’

Ingredients:

1-1.5 pounds ground grass-fed beef (could use chicken, turkey, pork or lamb)
coconut or olive oil for cooking
3/4 red pepper- thinly sliced
1 small to medium red onion- thinly sliced
8 mushrooms (half a pack) – clean and thinly sliced
3 cloves of fresh garlic – chopped
a few romaine lettuce leaves
various spices to taste
guacamole – garnish as a topping (homemade or store bought)

 Prep:

This is super easy! 

take the grass-fed ground beef and put it in a frying pan to cook on med to heat until browned and then remove from heat.
next, thinly slice all the veggies (whichever combo you choose) and sauté over med heat.
when caramelized and semi-cooked, re-add the beef to the pan to continue cooking for 5-10 mins or so.
lastly, add in chopped garlic and various spices to taste (I used fresh ground pepper and a Cajun spice mixture)
mix thoroughly
when fully cooked, scoop mixture into washed romaine lettuce leaves (or other large lettuce leaves) and top with guacamole as a tasty condiment
enjoy!
