Taco Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tortilla Shell

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the flour tortillas in a muffin tin to form small bowls. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden and crispy. Remove and let cool.

  2. 2

    Cook the Protein

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or shredded chicken until fully cooked. For ground beef, drain any excess fat, then add taco seasoning and stir until well combined. If using chicken, simply warm it up with a little seasoning.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In each tortilla shell, layer the cooked protein, followed by lettuce, tomatoes, and beans (if desired).

  4. 4

    Serve

    Drizzle with your choice of dressing and serve immediately.
