Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 2 tbsp Taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 head Romaine lettuce
- 1 cup Grape tomatoes
- 1 cup Black beans (cooked, drained, and rinsed)
- 1 cup Sweet corn (steamed or canned)
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups Tortilla chips
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.25 cup Cilantro (chopped)
- 1 large Lime
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook while breaking it up with a spatula until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain excess grease from the skillet. Add taco seasoning and water, stirring well. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Spread the lettuce evenly across a large serving platter or individual bowls.
Halve the grape tomatoes and thinly slice the red onion. Dice the avocado and chop the cilantro. Set aside.
Layer the black beans, corn, grape tomatoes, and red onion over the lettuce.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top, followed by the cooked taco beef.
Crush the tortilla chips slightly and sprinkle them over the salad for crunch.
In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and salsa to make a quick dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad, or serve it on the side for individual customization.
Top the salad with diced avocado, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
