INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 head of romaine lettuce, washed and separated into “boats”

  • 1 can fat-free refried beans 
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 TB taco spice (check for a clean label)

  • Himalayan salt, to taste
  • 1 vine tomato, diced
  • 1 handful scallions, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Add the onion to a saute pan on medium heat with just a little dash of water.  Cook until it starts to clear and then add the lentils, taco seasoning, and salt. Put aside once warmed through & cover.  
  2. Heat the refried beans in the same pan for a few minutes. Line your lettuce taco boats with the refried beans and then add the lentil mixture.  Add all diced toppings and a squeeze of fresh lime.
