Air Fryer Vegan Taco Bowls

Fish Tacos with Mango Guacamole

I am in love with using fruit in savory recipes right now! Earlier this week, we had chicken teriyaki pineapple boats (recipe). Then last night we made these cajun fish tacos with mango guacamole. I used paleo, gluten free tortillas. You can use any tortilla you want but if you’re looking to keep the recipe gf + paleo make sure you get a brand that complies with that! Enjoyed these tacos outside on a perfect summer evening.

Instant Pot Vegan Burrito Bowls

Another easy and healthy meal prep for you all. These instant pot vegan burrito bowls are ready in no time and require minimal effort. That’s the main reason I love my instant pot, the meals are quick and so easy. I prefer it to a crockpot for this reason.

Ingredients

Salad

Romaine lettuce 

1 cup tomatoes 

1 red onion

1 cup cheese 

1 lime 

1 cup corn 

Meat:

1 lb ground beef 

1 packet of taco seasoning (I used Siete Foods) 

Dressing:

1/2 cup cilantro, packed 

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt 

Juice of 2 limes

1 tsp honey

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1 tsp garlic powder 

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Method

Heat a pan over medium heat 

Add the ground beef + seasoning 

Sauté until the meat is browned, about 5-7 minutes 

I always drain the grease off! 

While the meat cooks, combine all of the dressing ingredients in a food processor and blend 

To speed things along, chop your veggies for the salad in a food processor! 

Assemble the salads in 4 containers, leaving that meat separate so you can heat it up! 

 Also store the dressing separately too.
