Time: PT5M
Assemble Cucumber Boats
Halve the cucumber lengthwise and scoop out the seeds to create a boat shape. In a small bowl, combine turkey slices, dairy‑free mayo, Dijon mustard, diced red onion, and mashed avocado. Spoon the mixture into each cucumber half and serve with a side of chili sauce for dipping.

Cook Egg Scramble a la Mexicana
Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium‑high heat (about 375°F). Add the diced onion and bell pepper; sauté 2 minutes. Add the tomato, jalapeño, and season with salt and pepper; cook another minute. Pour beaten eggs over the veggies, let set for 30 seconds, then gently stir until just cooked through. Top with sliced avocado and cilantro.

Temperature: 375°F
Brown Ground Beef & Grill Onions for Tacos
In the same skillet, add another tsp of olive oil and increase heat to medium‑high (375°F). Add sliced onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Push onions to the side, add ground beef, sprinkle taco seasoning, and break up with a spatula. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is browned and no longer pink, about 6‑7 minutes.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: 375°F
Assemble Beef Tacos
Warm the low‑carb tortillas in the skillet for 15 seconds each side. Fill each tortilla with a portion of the seasoned beef, top with diced tomato, fresh cilantro, a dollop of dairy‑free sour cream, and a drizzle of Tapatio hot sauce.
