With the colder temperatures, my tummy and body have been craving warmer and heartier foods. I had these ingredients in my pantry and fridge, tossed them together and was very pleasantly surprised. I've made it two more times since. The leftovers heat up great!
Ingredients:
1 lb grass fed organic ground beef
1 tbsp of coconut oil (or your preferred cooking oil)
i sweet onion, chopped
1 tbsp minced garlic
Dash of red pepper flakes (optional)
1 sweet potato, peeled and diced into bite size pieces
2 zucchini, halved and diced
1 15oz organic can of 3 bean medley (kidney, pinto, black)
1 packet of organic natural taco seasoning (you are welcome to make your own but I was being super quick/lazy)
Salt and pepper to taste
- Heat coconut oil in a large saute pan over medium-low heat
- Add onions, garlic and red pepper flakes. Stir frequenty
- Once onions start to be come softer, add the sweet potato and mix well. Turn up heat of stove to medium
- Put zucchini in pan and combine all ingredients well. Next place pan lid on top and let veggies cook
- Meanwhile, in a separate pan, brown the ground beef
- When beef is done and veggies are cooked through, mix beef into veggie pan
- Add beans and taco seasoning, mix well. Place lid on top and let simmer for 2-5 minutes stirring as needed
Easy-peasy, healthy AND delicious! Enjoy!
