Instructions

• STEP 1

  Wash and dry the fresh produce.

  • ½ tomato
  • ½ avocado
  • ¼ small bunch cilantro

• STEP 2

  Small dice tomato. Place on a plate.

• STEP 3

  Halve and pit avocado; using a spoon, scoop out the flesh and slice lengthwise into thin half-moons. Add to the plate with the tomato.

• STEP 4

  Shave cilantro leaves off the stems; discard stems and mince the leaves. Add to the plate and set aside.

• STEP 5

  Place beef, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl. Mix with your hands until well combined.

  • ¼ lb lean ground beef
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ⅛ tsp salt

• STEP 6

  Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

• STEP 7

  While the skillet heats up, arrange tortillas on a flat surface, then divide the beef mixture between them. Using the back of a spoon (or your fingers), spread the beef mixture over the surface of each tortilla in an even layer.

  • 2 small corn tortillas

• STEP 8

  Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Add tacos, meat-side down; cook, pressing down once with the bottom of a spatula halfway through cooking, until the beef is cooked through, about 3 minutes.

  • ½ tsp extra virgin olive oil

• STEP 9

  Flip tacos, beef-side up, and sprinkle with cheese. Continue to cook until cheese is melted, 1 minute more. Remove from heat.

  • ⅓ cup shredded cheese, Mexican blend

• STEP 10

  Meanwhile, peel and small dice shallot. Add to the plate with the other veggies.

  • ½ shallot

• STEP 11

  To serve, divide smash tacos between plates. Top with tomato, cilantro, shallot, and avocado. Enjoy!
