In the hot days of summer, I love a fresh delicious salad. However, my husband doesn’t really think that a “salad” is a main dish . . . when I made him this for dinner, I was so happy to find that he loved it! Of course, he piled on more meat than vegetables, but that is the great thing about this recipe- you can top it with whatever you like. My kids love to assemble their own salads and add whatever toppings they feel like. We have now made these salads a couple of times because they are so simple to throw together and we all love them.
The meat is what makes this salad – a fun twist from your regular taco meat.
