Doing some Prep work - Taco Meat

 

Taco Meat Prep

in order for your meals to come together quickly some prep work is needed. This "base" concoction i can use for breakfast, after work out or fill in for come macros. plus you cant go wrong with taco meat.

Can across another near giveaway at Kroger. honestly never tried the ground beef/pork combo before. my target/cut off for buying ground beef is between $1.50-$1.75 per pound.. more than that i will pass and wait till next time. so $4 for 32 ounces is about $1.60lb and in the size i was needing for the prep.

Cook the meat in a wok, add an onion, a can of diced chilies or jalapenos and 2 packs taco seasoning mix. there are carbs in the taco mix so consider those. i dont drain the meat at all. you need some liquid anyway when adding the taco mix.. when complete, tupperware into 8 servings for use later.

Each serving will be: Protein: 25g , Fat: 21g , Carb 6 (from the taco mix) , Calories 360.

i will usually either add chopped up hard boiled eggs to the tupperware and microwave or heat up the meat and add to scrambled eggs. Also could add chicken pieces, etc . lots of possibilities.

They also do make keto friendly tortillas so you could make tacos.

Cost per tupperware: will be generous for easy math and say $1.00 , the meat was about 30cents on the dollar so that saved you huge. divide into 8 servings remember. taco mix is .33 each, say .50 for onion, .99 for chilies . pretty cheap
