Need a quick, healthy, and super easy dinner? These taco salads are perfect! I always opt for ground turkey instead of ground beef and always try to grab the leanest percentage. The easiest way to make this recipe is by getting a bagged salad and using that as the base instead of spending lots of time cleaning and chopping lettuce. I love the southwestern chopped salad for this recipe because it comes with green onion, cilantro, and tortilla strips. You can also add any items you have on hand that you think you might like in this salad.
Ingredients:
- Southwestern Chopped Bag Salad
- Ground Turkey
- Taco Seasoning
- Roasted Corn
- Tomatoes
- Onion
- (Any additional toppings of your choice: cheese, sour cream, avocado, salsa, taco sauce, etc.)
Instructions:
- Brown ground turkey in skillet over medium high heat, breaking up the meat while it cooks. (I love this kitchen tool for this step!)
- Add in taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Let it simmer on low heat.
- While the meat is cooking, fix the roasted corn in skillet per package instructions.
- Assemble your salad in the following layers: lettuce, taco meat, corn, tomatoes, onion, & tortilla strips.
- Drizzle with salad dressing or taco sauce.
Enjoy!
