Way to Cut Down on the Salsa
Here's my version. It's a little lower in carbs because it cuts down on the salsa. After you brown/drain your ground beef, add traditional taco meat spices *see below* and 1/2 cup water. Simmer until water evaporates. Save your salsa for for the dressing: stir 3-4 T of salsa into a little mayo under you get a desirable saucy thickness (you can add some sour cream if you'd like). Voila! A nice mexi-dressing. I use the Eden Black Soy Beans too. Adds a nice texture and lots of fiber.
*Spices: 1 T chilie powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp Mexican Oregano- if you have it. Not regular Oregano.- 1/2 tsp garlic powder, few grinds of black peper, tsp-ish kosher salt
*Salsa: I use Herdez brand from Mexico. It's usually near all of the Goya items, not with the regular salsa. It's like 4 ingredients. Good stuff!
