02 - 2 large ripe avocados, halved and pitted
03 - 1 small tomato, diced
04 - 1/4 small red onion, finely chopped
05 - 1 small jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
06 - 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
07 - 1 clove garlic, minced
08 - 1 lime, juiced
→ Dairy
09 - 1/3 cup sour cream
10 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese blend
→ Spices & Seasonings
11 - 1 teaspoon chili powder
12 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
13 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
14 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
15 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
16 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
→ Oils
17 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
# How To:
01 - Combine diced tomato, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, half the lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
02 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully browned, approximately 5 minutes.
03 - Stir in minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 additional minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.
04 - Halve the avocados and remove pits. Carefully scoop out a small amount of flesh from each half to create a larger cavity for filling, reserving the scooped avocado.
05 - Dice the reserved avocado flesh and gently fold it into the prepared salsa mixture.
06 - Squeeze the remaining lime juice over the avocado halves to prevent browning.
07 - Divide the seasoned taco meat evenly among the avocado halves. Top with cheese while the meat is warm to facilitate melting.
08 - Spoon the salsa mixture over each stuffed avocado. Add a dollop of sour cream on top. Serve immediately.
