- 1 lb ground meat or plant-based alternative (we love bison here!)
- 4 tsp ranch it up
- 1.5 tsp faco belle

- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp honey
- arugula
- tortillas (use whatever you like best, or omit and make this a bowl)
- Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add ground meat, 2.5 tsp ranch it up + 1.5 tsp faco belle. Cook for about 10 minutes, until browned.
- While meat is cooking, make the carrot salad/slaw. Shred carrots. Add to a bowl with pepitas.
- Mix olive oil, lemon juice, 1.5 tsp ranch it up, and honey, until the honey is dissolved.
- Pour the dressing over the carrots and pepitas, then mix well.
- Heat tortillas and assemble tacos with meat, arugula, and carrot salad.
