Create taco salad with ingredients of your choice!
I love taco salad….yummy, easy, healthy…yay! My husband and kids LOVE tacos too! It’s so nice because nobody complains about dinner! I love them because they are so easy and I can make them healthier for me!
When we have tacos, the kids just eat them on regular tortillas and I either make a taco salad or use a lo-carb, high protein/fiber tortilla for me.
This time, I made it into a taco salad, obviously. I used iceberg lettuce, baby spinach, fat-free refried beans, ground turkey taco meat, a little cheese (I splurged), low-fat cottage cheese, and salsa. Yum!
