Ingredients
  • 51.6 g 85% lean 15% fat fresh ground beef
  • 71.0 g Spanish style organic white rice, cooked
  • 9.2 g Spanish Queen olives stuffed with garlic, sliced
  • 35.5 g Tuscan kale, finely shredded (as lettuce wrap base)
  • 18.4 g Pomodorina with fresh basil pasta sauce
Method
  1. 01Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until browned and fragrant, about 6-8 minutes.
  2. 02Drain any excess fat, then stir in the Pomodorina sauce and the sliced garlic-stuffed Spanish Queen olives. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld into a savory, aromatic picadillo base.
  3. 03Fold in the cooked Spanish-style rice, stirring until evenly coated and heated through.
  4. 04Arrange the shredded Tuscan kale leaves on a plate to serve as sturdy 'cups'.
  5. 05Spoon the beef and rice mixture into the center of the kale. Garnish with a final dash of fresh cracked black pepper if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
