Healthy gluten-free beef and lentil tacos with nutritious veggies - perfect for taco night.
Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 5.00 gm smoked paprika
  • 5.00 gm ground cumin
  • 300g lean beef mince
  • 44.40 gm no-added-salt tomato paste
  • 400g can no-added-salt brown lentils, rinsed, drained
  • 2 vine ripened tomatoes, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 1 yellow capsicum, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 1 long fresh green chilli, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 2 baby gem lettuce, thinly shredded
  • 8 small gluten-free corn tortillas, chargrilled
Instructions:
  • In a large non-stick frying pan, heat half of the oil over medium heat. Add half of the onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until soft. Then add garlic, paprika, and cumin, and stir for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
  • Turn up the heat to high and add the beef. Brown the beef for 3-4 minutes, using a wooden spoon to break up any lumps. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Mix in 185ml (3/4 cup) water until well combined. Add the lentils and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 10 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
  • Combine vibrant tomatoes, fresh capsicum, spicy chilli, zesty lime juice, and the rest of the fragrant onion and oil. Season generously. Mix until well combined.
  • Assemble the taco filling, lettuce, and salsa onto the tortillas for a satisfying meal.
