Build-Your-Own Taco Night

Kid-approved, high protein, zero dinner battles

Taco night is one of the easiest ways to get protein in without forcing bites. Kids love choice, and this gives them control while still being nourishing.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef or turkey

• 1 packet mild taco seasoning

• Soft tortillas

• Shredded cheese

• Diced avocado

• Mild salsa

• Plain Greek yogurt (instead of sour cream)

• Cooked rice

• Optional: black beans

How to Make It

1. Brown meat in a skillet and add taco seasoning with a splash of water.

2. Simmer for 5 minutes.

3. Set up a simple taco bar with all toppings in small bowls.

4. Let kids build their own plate — tortilla + cheese still counts.
