Taco Salad

This is such a yummy dish and it’s super quick to make…a lot like spaghetti. You can make it as simple or fancy as you want. Here is the simple version:

Ingredients (Serves 4-6)
1 lb. ground beef
2 Tbsp. taco seasoning
1 bag of iceberg lettuce or 1 head of iceberg lettuce prepared
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey jack cheese or cheddar cheese
1 bag of tortilla strips/chips
Top with: Chopped Tomato and Avocado, Sour cream, Salsa, and Ranch (We love the cilantro lime ranch)

Directions:
Brown ground beef with taco seasoning, drain and cool. Mix cooked beef, lettuce and cheese. Top with tortilla chips just before serving along with tomato, avocado, sour cream and ranch.

Cilantro Lime Ranch (Makes 1 Cup)
Ingredients:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup cilantro (about a small handful)
1 Tbsp buttermilk ranch seasoning mix
1 small clove garlic (1/2 tsp of chopped garlic)
Juice of 1 lime
Combine all ingredients in a blender. Store in refrigerator.  
Enjoy!
