Ingredients

For the Chunky Guacamole:

  • 2 ripe avocados, skin and pit removed, cut into ½“ chunks
  • 1 package Sprinkles® tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp. red onion, finely diced 
  • 1 Tbsp. cilantro, finely chopped 
  • Lime juice, to taste
  • Kosher salt, to taste

 

For the Taco-Style Lettuce Cups:

  • 1-½ lb. 80% lean ground beef
  • 1 Tbsp. canola oil
  • 1 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 2 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. Kosher salt
  • Shredded Mexican-style cheese, for serving
  • Green leaf lettuce leaves, for serving
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Directions

  • To make the chunky guacamole, combine the avocado, Sprinkles®, red onion, cilantro and lime juice in a large bowl. Stir well to combine and season with Kosher salt to taste. Cover and allow flavors to marry while preparing the beef. 
  • To make the ground beef, heat oil in a large skillet over medium to high heat. Cook the beef, breaking into crumbles with a wooden spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat in the pan, leaving about 1 Tbsp, and return to the stove. Reduce heat to low and add in the spices, stirring well to combine. Cook until the beef is completely cooked through and remove from the heat. 
  • Serve the ground beef and chunky guacamole with shredded cheese and lettuce leaves for building. Serve with lime wedges.
