We found these Eat Meati Carne Asada steaks at Whole Foods the other day; they have incredible macros and are made from mushroom root! They were very quick and easy to cook, and had great flavor! Paired with some Just Eggs and cashew queso, they were a perfect high protein quick meal! You could also top with a salsa or something if you don’t feel like making this queso.
Servings 2 servings

Ingredients

Taco

  • 1 box Eat Meati Carne Asada Steaks
  • 1/2 cup Just Egg liquid
  • 4 Mission Plant Protein Tortillas these have really good macros so this is what we use; you can sub these with another tortilla but the calories and macros will likely be different

Cashew Queso

  • 1 1/2 cup raw unsalted, unroasted cashews
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons of salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 small cans green chilies

Instructions
 

Cashew Queso

  • Add cashews to a pot of boiling water and allow to boil for about 10 minutes; this will soften the cashews enough to blend
  • In a blender, mix cashews, water, salt and green chilies until it is a smooth or creamy texture

Tacos

  • Cook Carne Asada steaks per package instructions. Set aside once cooked and slice for the tacos
  • In a medium-low heat pan, add your Just Egg liquid and cook. I like to continuously move the Just Egg around while it cooks so that it becomes a scrambled egg like texture
  • Assembly: Place half of a steak (sliced) in each tortilla, and 1/4 of the eggs (on each tortilla). Top with queso, salsa or whatever you like

Notes

Feel free to use as much cashew queso as you want; for the calories listed, we used 50 grams of it on each serving
