Beef Nachos Bowl with a Quick Guacamole
I come to you with something a little different today. I’ve been choosing some lighter options for during the week and this is one of them. Adapted from the recipe from the CSIRO from their Low Carb Diet cookbook, I’ve changed a few things including removing the cucumber as I’m not a massive fan, and adding in corn (which has more carbs but adds a sweetness this dish needs). The quick guacamole is the dressing but some people might need a little more, so you can always add a dollop or two of high protein Greek yoghurt instead of sour cream if you fancy.
