4 tomatoes
1 T. extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb. ground beef (or ground turkey)
1 packet taco seasoning
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2/3 c. shredded Mexican cheese
1/2 c. shredded iceberg lettuce
1/2 c. sour cream
In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil; add onion; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and taco seasoning, breaking up the meat while cooking. Season with salt and pepper; cook until the beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Drain fat and discard; set aside.
Place tomatoes stem-side down; cut each tomato into 6 wedges, being careful to not cut completely through the tomato. Carefully spread open the wedges.
Divide taco meat evenly among the tomatoes; top each with cheese, lettuce and sour cream.
Serve.
