So I’ve been on a potato skins kick lately. Eating these Whole30 Beefy Taco Potato Skins is like having junk food for dinner, but somehow all the ingredients are Whole30-compliant. Crispy, salty potato skins filled with spicy taco meat full of tomatoes and onions? What more could you want?!

(Note: Although all of these ingredients in themselves are Whole30-compliant, feeding your junk food cravings is not in line with the Whole30 guidelines.

I don’t indulge in these Whole30 Beefy Taco Potato Skins, my Sloppy Joe Potato Skins or my BLT Potato Skins very often because of this.

If you’re like me, a busy working mom with too much to do to sit down and stop everything to read a book, you should definitely check out Amazon’s Audible program. That’s how I found time to read It Starts With Food, by having it read to me. I love, love Audible.  I just recently purchased Food Freedom Forever with one of my monthly credits, and it’s another winner so far. I listen to it in the car to and from work and also while I’m cooking and doing chores.

Instructions
 

Taco Meat

  • Heat 1 tbsp. extra light olive oil over medium-high heat in a skillet.
  • Add ground beef and onion and cook 6-8 minutes, or until beef is browned and onion is translucent. Use a mix 'n' chop or wooden spatula to keep the meat nice and ground.
  • Add diced tomatoes and spices. Cook 2 more minutes, mixing well, until the excess juice has cooked down.

Potato Skins

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • At this point, your potatoes should be baked and cooled enough to touch.
  • Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise.
  • Scoop out the insides, leaving some of the potato in the skins. I used an ice cream scoop.
  • Mix the melted ghee in a small dish and mix in the extra light olive oil. Note: Use 4 tbsp. extra light olive oil in place of the ghee/olive oil mixture if you can't tolerate ghee
  • Brush the ghee mixture on both sides of the potato skins.
  • Sprinkle the insides lightly with sea salt.
  • Place potato halves face-down on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Using tongs, turn the potatoes over and continue to bake until the edges of the potatoes start to turn golden brown.
  • Remove the potatoes from oven.
  • Fill each skin with the taco meat mixture until slightly heaping.
  • Return to oven for an additional 5 minutes to let everything finish getting crispy.
  • Garnish with Whole30-compliant hot sauce, Paleo Sour Cream, avocado chunks, cilantro and lime wedges.
