One who believes that the mighty, meaty mushroom makes meals more delicious, nutritious and sustainable! Scroll down to see how I am taking the challenge.
Tacos are one of them meals that my family could literally "live" on. My kids request them every week and I totally do not mind because they make for a super easy meal. Lately, however, I am trying to add some extra nutrition to my meals. I swapped out iceberg lettuce for organic greens, added olives, and now use organic corn shells. My kids have no idea that I am making dinner more nutritious and that is ok because, if those picky buggers knew they probably would not eat.
The Secret to Moist Flavorful Taco Meat:
The key to making the moistest and flavorful taco meat is to addground brown mushrooms to the ground beef in a 2 parts ground beef, 1 part ground mushroom mixture. It might sound strange, but trust me, it makes for the best taco meat ever!This makes us Blenditarians–scroll down below for more info!
Make Your Taco Meat More Nutritious!
This not only stretches the ground beef and provided leftovers, but it also adds some nutritional bang for the buck! Mushrooms are fat-free, cholesterol free, low in calories, and provide important nutrients like vitamin D, B vitamins, antioxidants and potassium. By blending mushrooms with meat, you also get an easy serving of vegetables to the plate which this Momma loves!
The best part is you cannot even tell when you look at the meat so my picky eaters have no idea they're getting an extra dose of goodness! Overall, I have to say, this recipe makes for some delicious tacos and easy leftovers. To warm the meat mixture for the next day, I simply added it to a skillet and heated on low.
You too can add extra nutrition to your ground beef based meals! Make the pledge to be a Blenditarian and share what drives you to do better!

The Best Taco Meat Recipe Ever!
A true blenditarian recipe. This ground mushroom and beef taco meat mixture is so flavorful and your family will not even be able to taste the difference. Stretch your ground beef thanks to this easy recipe hack.
Servings 8 people
Calories 382 cal
Cost $9
- 2 lbs 80% ground beef
- 1 lb brown or white mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
- 2 tablespoons organic taco seasoning *use can use non-organic if you prefer
- 12 count white corn taco shells
- 2 cups organic greens *use can use non-organic if you prefer
- 1/4 cup olives sliced
- 2 whole Plum tomatoes chopped
- 1 cup shredded Mexican Cheese
-
Ground mushrooms up in a food processor.
-
Once done, add them to a large skillet with olive oil and beef.
-
Cook until beef is browned; about 8 or so minutes over medium heat.
-
Turn stove off, and then carefully drain grease into a glass bowl. I use a turkey baster to cautiously remove the grease and add it into a ceramic or glass cup. I then allow it to harden before throwing it out. Grease is very harmful for drains and will reek havoc if you continuously dump grease down.
-
Once excess grease is removed, add taco seasoning, and 1/4 cup of water to drained mixture, and cook over low heat and allow it to simmer.
-
Prepare your tacos when you all are ready to eat. Add fresh veggies as wanted, and enjoy!
