This is a family favorite and easy to modify. If your family is partial to shells or tortillas, it's easy to take all these ingredients and toss them into a shell or tortilla. Sometimes I do the same, but this is an easy way to cut a carb for the day or use that carb elsewhere. So this version is carb-less, but feel free to add in what you need :)
Ingredients
4oz ground beef (per person)
1 5oz bag of shredded lettuce
1 large onion
2 large bell peppers
2 large tomatoes
2 large limes
Spices for Taco Seasoning
6 tbsp chili powder
2 tbsp ground cumin
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1tsp dried oregano
1 tbsp dried basil
1/4 tsp pepper
Combine all spices into separate tupperware where you can keep the extra! There WILL be extra :)
Directions
Brown ground beef in large skillet. Once cooked throughout, add 2 tsp of spice mixture and a little water to make sure it all gets combined. Bring to boil, turn off stove, and set ground beef aside. Chop all tomatoes and put into bowl. Chop bell peppers and onions and put spread out on baking sheet. Pop into the oven on broil for ten minutes. Once the veggies come out of the oven, put them in the bowl with the tomatoes. Squeeze juice of both limes into veggie mixture. Stir to combine and set aside. This will be your salsa dressing for your taco salad.
Each salad should get 4oz of ground beef, half cup lettuce, and a cup and a half of salsa.
