Let’s rethink meat. Many of us were raised on hamburger for tacos, spaghetti sauces, fillings, dumplings, enchiladas….you get the picture.
The hearty grains are a fantastic substitute for chopped meat or hamburger. This video shows just one idea, subbing farro for taco meat. Experiment with other grains and add a few chopped mushrooms, savory veggies like chopped onion and spices to get the flavor profile you want. The bonus is that you get fiber and excellent nutrition to boot. Oh, and you don’t need to worry about common meat contaminants like salmonella, e. coli, clostridium perfringens to name a few. One final thing: you’ll save money.
