Rachel's "Fancy" Layered Taco Salad
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1-1/2 lbs ground turkey or ground beef
- 2 Tbsps homemade taco seasoning
- 1 - 6 oz jar salsa, red or green
- 2 large heads of romaine or iceberg lettuce, chopped
- 1 - 15- ounce can of black or pinto beans, rinsed
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1 cup shredded cheese of choice
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large avocado, diced
- 1 fresh lemon or lime, juiced over the avocado
- 1 cup crumbled corn tortilla chips
Instructions
- Heat your oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add in the ground meat and taco seasoning. Cook while stirring and breaking up the meat, for about 8-10 minutes, or until the meat nicely browns. Carefully drain and discard any excess grease if necessary, then stir in your favorite jar of salsa and set aside and allow it to cool.
- Transfer your chopped lettuce to the bottom of a tall serving trifle bowl.
- Top meat in this order: beans, taco meat, cherry tomatoes, cheese, yogurt, then diced avocado.
- Squeeze plenty of fresh lemon or lime juice over the avocado to prevent it from browning.
- Crumble corn tortilla chips on top and enjoy!
