3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 medium sweet onion, chopped
1 lb 85/15 grass-fed ground beef

Note: Potassium is important when you're skipping carbs like rice, tortillas and tortilla chips. Unfortunately, it seems the potassium content isn't included in these ingredients, so for the sake of completeness, here are some estimates:

A 1/2 cup serving would include about 1 ounce of ground beef and more than an ounce of ground turkey. Between the two there's about 150mg of potassium in a serving from the meat alone. Add about 260mg from about 2.6 ounces of pinto beans for a total of 410mg of potassium in a serving. (If you leave out the beans, that will eliminate most of the carbohydrates in the taco meat, but also a good deal of the potassium.)

Here is how you make Chipotle Beef and Turkey Taco Filling:

Saut? chopped sweet onion in the olive oil on medium heat until it becomes soft and translucent. Add the ground beef and brown slightly. When the ground beef has given up some of its juices, add the turkey meat and saut? the two meats together for several minutes until all the meat is browned. This helps lighten the beef flavor, and imparts more juiciness to the low-fat turkey.Add the pinto beans, chipotle salsa and pico de gallo. Stir in cumin and let simmer on low-medium heat for 45 minutes.Note: Calories are for 1/2 cup servings. If you have a whole cup, make sure you track two servings.Serving Size:?Makes 16 1/2-cup servings or 8 one-cup servings.
