Easy Taco Seasoned Beef Lettuce Wraps

I have been wanting the Wholesome Yum Easy Keto Cookbook for MONTHS and I finally got it for Christmas (Thanks BF!) I was off work for 9 days so I decided to take the time and go through my cookbook, write down some recipes, and start making some delicious meals. One of the first meals I made was the Thai Beef Lettuce Wraps on page 69 of the cookbook - can also be found HERE . Since we don't like fish sauce, coconut aminos were too expensive, and we didn't want bell pepper, we ended up changing the recipe quite a bit. I just used this recipe as a reference/guide and we ended up making taco-seasoned beef which was much more flavorful. I can't say it was low carb but it was still delicious. I also am a huge fan of butter lettuce which was used in the recipe. Enjoy! Ingredients: -1 tbsp avocado oil -2 tsp minced garlic -1 pound ground beef -1/2 tsp salt -1/4 tsp pepper -1 1/2 tbsp lime juice -1 taco seasoning packet -8 leaves butter lettuce -1/2 avocado, diced -1/
