Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large flour tortillas
- 1 pound Ground beef (or turkey)
- 1 packet Taco seasoning
- 4 cups Romaine lettuce
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 piece Avocado (diced)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped)
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly brush both sides of the tortillas with olive oil and drape each tortilla over an upside-down oven-safe bowl or place them inside an oven-safe tortilla mold to create the bowl shape.
Bake the tortillas for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Let them cool slightly, then remove from the bowls and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup of water. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the flavors are well combined. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
Prepare the salad by combining the chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes (halved), and black beans in a large bowl.
Divide the salad mixture evenly among the tortilla bowls.
Top each salad with the seasoned ground beef, shredded cheddar cheese, diced avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
