To make these avocado taco boats, start with avocados, grape tomatoes, a jalapeño, romaine lettuce, cooked ground beef, taco seasoning, sour cream, salsa, and cheddar cheese.
Cut each avocado in half and remove the pit.
Use a spoon to scoop out each avocado half.
Save the inside and outside, as the avocado peels will serve as the taco "shells."
Chop 4 grape tomatoes.
Chop the jalapeño into thin rings.
Break the romaine leaves into small pieces.
Cut the avocado halves into thin slices.
Mix the taco seasoning packet with the cooked ground beef. The beef is best cooked all the way through over medium-high heat.
Take the avocado shells and line them with the small pieces of lettuce.
Place two scoops of ground beef into each shell.
Top the beef with a spoonful of sour cream and spoonful of salsa.
Cover the sour cream and salsa with shredded cheese.
Place one avocado slice on the side of each shell.
Top with two cherry tomato pieces and one jalapeño ring. Feel free to spice it up even more by adding a tortilla chip!
