⅛
cup

½
cup

1

Instructions
Brown ground meat with seasonings listed or as directed on taco seasoning packet.
Ground turkey has little to no excess fat so 1-2 tablespoons of water may need to be added to incorporate the seasonings well into the cooked meat.
Set aside.
Add ground meat to chips and stir until well incorporated.
Mix in veggies and cheese until all ingredients are dispersed nicely.
Leave Avocado and Salsa or Lime Wedges for “dressing” salad.
3 thin slices of Avocado per salad gives a nice rich and creamy flavor with healthy fats.
Notes
Use Salsa and/or Limes for “dressing”
*May substitute above seasonings for generic taco seasoning mix if preferred
