Taco Salad with Ground Turkey

Taco salad’s popularity comes from the combination of flavors and textures.  It is a convenient meal option for people on the go. The blend of seasoned beef (or turkey), fresh lettuce, cheese, salsa, sour cream, and crunchy tortilla chips or strips are easy to prepare and serve to a group. 

Whether you’re enjoying it at a Tex-Mex restaurant or making it at home, this flexible-ingredient dish celebrates the flavors of Mexico.

You can customize it with grilled chicken, shrimp, or even tofu, add extra veggies, and experiment with different dressings to enhance the flavors.

Today we are using Ground turkey, taco seasoning, cheddar cheese, lettuce, chopped tomatoes, green onions, guacamole, pico di gallo, Corn salsa, and cheese Doritos.  For the sauce, we use cream cheese and sour cream, with some taco seasoning.

If you’re looking for a healthy twist, try a version with black beans, tomatoes, avocado, and a zesty cilantro lime dressing.
