LOW CALORIE SMASH BURGER TACOS
LOW CALORIE SMASH BURGER TACOS
This is by far my favorite low calorie recipe to date. Not only do I plan on working this recipe into my weekly regimen, but I actually proudly prepared it for my parents after inviting them over for dinner just last week. They were shocked to learn just how lean this recipe actually is…. Because it does not taste it! Between the low carb tortillas and the extra lean ground beef, this recipe is good for both your taste buds and your fat loss journey!
