Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Ground pork
- 0.25 cup Chopped bacon
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Chopped red onion
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 large Lettuce leaves
- 1 whole Avocado, sliced
- 1 cup Diced tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions
In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Add chopped bacon and cook until it becomes crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
To the same skillet, add chopped red onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add ground beef and ground pork to the skillet. Break apart the meat using a spatula and cook until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Stir in cumin powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Combine well and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the spices to blend with the meat.
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the cooked bacon.
Lay out the lettuce leaves, using two overlapping leaves per burrito wrap to ensure sturdiness.
Distribute the cooked meat mixture evenly among the lettuce wraps.
Top each with sliced avocado, diced tomatoes, and chopped fresh cilantro.
Serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty finishing touch. Enjoy your Paleo Meatlovers Burrito!
