This is a quick and easy recipe for Ground beef tacos with a Greek yogurt sauce, and Fajita style onions and peppers
I usually start by cooking the onions and peppers first and setting them aside in tinfoil to stay warm. I then prepare the ground beef and while that is cooking I prepare the yogurt sauce, which is a good alternative for sour cream.
Fajita style Onions and Peppers:
Chop 1 1/2-2 Peppers, whichever colours you prefer( I usually use red, orange, or yellow).
Chop 1/2 of an onion, larger pieces are fine
Chop one clove of garlic
Saute the onions on medium heat until translucent
Add the peppers and cook until soft
Wrap the peppers and onion in tin foil to stay warm, and set aside until the rest of the meal is ready
( I do this in order to use one pan cooking this meal, but this part can be prepared later if preferred)
The Meat:
Saute 1/2 onion and 1 clove of garlic, just like you did for the peppers.
Once translucent, add the beef. When it is cooked halfway through, add 1 1/2 tablespoons of cumin
Cook until brown
Yogurt Sauce:
This is a good, healthier alternative for sour cream.
Ingredients:
one clove of garlic, diced small
5 tablespoons of plain greek yogurt (ratios are flexible)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon of cumin ( add more to taste, if needed)
a touch of salt and pepper
In a small bowl mix all of the ingredients
Serve with tortillas, grated cheese, guacamole, salsa, hot sauce, and any other taco or fajita toppings that you like!
Enjoy
