Instructions
- In a medium skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat until no pink remains. Drain any fat.
- Add the taco seasoning and ½ cup water. Simmer uncovered over medium heat for 5 minutes or until thickened. Stir in beans.
- Place the lettuce in a large salad bowl or divide over individual serving bowls. Top with the seasoned meat mixture, tomatoes, cheese, avocado, and desired toppings.
- Top with tortilla chips, salsa, and sour cream.
Notes
- While we use sour cream and salsa as dressing, Catalina or Thousand Island are also great with this salad.
- To make this meal fast, use pre-washed lettuce. Prepare topping ingredients while the beef is browning.
- Leftover taco meat can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container and reheated in the microwave.
