•  2-4 large romaine lettuce leaves
• 1/2 lb. ground meat or black beans (vegetarian option)
• 1/2 cup slivered/sliced almonds

• 1 yellow onion chopped
• Sprig of fresh rosemary/1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
• 5 large basil leaves
• 2 sprigs of thyme or 1/2 tsp. dried thyme

Heat the oil on medium high temperature. If you’re using butter, be mindful that butter burns easily so heat it on medium to low heat. Sauté the onions for 1-2 minutes. Then add the ground meat or beans.

Add the rosemary, basil, thyme, salt and a pinch of Goya seasoning. Cook for about 10-13 minutes or until desired doneness has been reached.

• 1/2  an onion chopped
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1/2 of a lime (juiced)

• Salt to taste

Start by removing the skin and seeds of the avocados. Add the onions, pepper, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil and salt to taste. Mash vigorously and combine!

Wash the lettuce leaves. Dry with paper towels or with your salad spinner. First add your meat or black beans. Then add guacamole, mushrooms and almonds.

*Optional: add bell peppers and top with parmesan.
