So this isn’t so much of a recipe but a way to make traditional tacos healthier and migraine-friendly!

As I’ll discuss in upcoming posts about vitamin K, it’s super important to have grass-fed meat whenever possible. It’s always possible to find grass-fed beef at all major grocery stores – grass fed chicken or turkey is nearly IMpossible unless you go to a local co-op

Shell:

• Use gluten-free organic* corn tortillas. Heat up on skillet to soften

*Check the ingredients and make sure there are  no additives, chemicals, unnecessary goo. Just corn and maybe some sea salt or lime and filtered water. Just because it’s organic doesn’t mean the companies don’t sometimes throw stupid stuff in.

*Also, make sure it’s ORGANIC non-gmo corn, so you aren’t stuffing yourself with cancer-causing glyphosate

Goodies:

• 1 lb of grass fed ground beef  –  make sure no hormones or antibiotics added
• Homemade taco seasoning – BE CAREFUL with McCormicks or other pre-packaged brands. Even though it’s gluten free, there are lots of gross additives – and McCormicks adds dairy (which I can’t have) and natural flavors – which we’ll get into later. Make your own! It’s fun and cheap and you are guaranteed to know what’s in it
• Organic tomatoes – limit consumption if on an auto-immune related diet
• Dairy free cheese – SAY WHAT? it’s hilarious – even the packaging says “it melts and stretches” because they know it’s weird. Heres the thing:
  1. Don’t eat a lot of it – it still has way too many ingredients that aren’t the best like Xantham Gum, Citric Acid, and Natural Flavors
  2. It doesn’t taste that good -but if you are still a fat kid inside like me and want the thrill, it’s worth a few shreds once a week
• Shredded swiss chard. Healthier than lettuce, a HUGE source of vitamin K, A, and C, and loaded with tons of antioxidants.
• If you want to be a little unhealthy, I put Herdez green salsa on top to satisfy my spicy crave. Just limit again if you are on any autoimmune watch as it’s loaded with all nightshades

Enjoy a healthy version of tacos!

*Superhero modification*

If you want to be super healthy and help your gut out, hide some cooked liver in with the ground beef to get your fat soluble vitamins. I’m not there yet, so I won’t judge if you don’t – but Liver is PACKED with vitamins and minerals. Has more in 1 serving than any other food out there. Richest source of Folate if you are or are trying to get pregnant, loaded with Iron, and has all B vitamins and A,D,E, and K if grass-fed.
