COOKBOOK / 2941
Start by cooking the ground bison and chopped onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Keep stirring until the meat is nicely browned and the onion has softened, then drain any excess fat. Sprinkle in the cumin, salt, coriander, cayenne, and add a splash of water. Give it all a good stir and let it cook for a couple more minutes so the spices blend in.
While that’s cooking, whisk the eggs and milk together in a bowl. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the bison. As the eggs start to set around the edges, gently push them toward the center with a spatula, letting the uncooked eggs flow underneath. Keep doing this until the eggs are mostly set but still a little soft—about two minutes.
Spoon the bison and egg mixture evenly into your taco shells, then sprinkle on some cheese. Serve them up with the pineapple salsa on the side.
For the salsa, just mix together the pineapple, bell pepper, onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño if you want a kick, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Let it chill in the fridge for up to a day so the flavors meld together.
- Cook the ground bison over medium heat to keep it tender and juicy.
- Use fresh pineapple for the salsa to get the best natural sweetness and texture.
- Warm the tortillas before assembling to make them more pliable and enhance their flavor.
This dish brings together lean, flavorful ground bison with a bright, fresh pineapple salsa. It’s a delicious way to start the day with protein and a touch of sweetness. The combination of savory and fruity flavors makes every bite exciting and satisfying.
Serve with a side of black beans or a simple green salad to add extra nutrients and balance the meal. A drizzle of hot sauce or a dollop of sour cream can also add a nice kick or creaminess, depending on your preference.
Store any leftover meat and salsa separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. The salsa is best eaten within two days for optimal freshness, while the cooked meat can last up to three days. Reheat the meat gently to avoid drying it out.
