To cut the meat in the most efficient way we recommend to use a meat slicer.

Steak Tacos

• 1 cup avocado diced
• 1/4 cup red onion finely diced
• 2 tablespoons cilantro minced
• 2 teaspoons lime juice
• salt to taste

Instructions

• Make the avocado topping. Stir together the avocado, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl.

• 2 teaspoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon freshly grated horseradish
• ½ teaspoon lemon zest
• ½ medium red onion, thinly sliced
• Salt, to taste
• 1 cup packed baby spinach or your favourite salad leaves
• 1 Burger bun or ciabatta roll

Instructions

• In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, horseradish and lemon zest; set aside.
• Place a small saucepan over medium heat. When hot, add the oil, onions, and a bit of salt and cook, often stirring until the onions have become very soft and jam-like, about 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer the onions to a small bowl.
• To the same saucepan, add the spinach and sauté over medium heat until the spinach begins to wilt, 1 to 2 minutes. 
• To assemble, spread the mayo mixture on the top side of bread. On the bottom half of the bread, layer the sliced meat, wilted spinach, and caramelised onions. Top with the other side of bread, slice in half and serve.
