Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 8 cups Romaine lettuce
- 1 pint Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup Corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 2 cups Tortilla chips
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped)
- 1 Avocado (diced)

Instructions
1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
2. Drain any excess grease from the skillet. Stir in the taco seasoning and water, mixing well. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. While the beef is cooling, prepare the vegetables. Chop romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Rinse and drain the black beans, and if using frozen corn, thaw it beforehand.
4. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, salsa, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper to make the dressing. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
5. In a large salad bowl, layer the lettuce, seasoned ground beef, black beans, corn, cherry tomatoes, shredded cheese, and tortilla chips.
6. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad. Toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
7. Top with diced avocado and sprinkle a little extra cilantro for garnish if desired.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Taco Salad Supreme!
