| Meatless Monday ~ Taco Salad in a Baked Flour Tortilla 'Bowl' |
I
like making anything Mexican & this Taco Salad is a perfect way to satisfy both my salad & Mexican food cravings. This recipe really lends itself to Meatless Monday, too. I found a tasty vegetarian chorizo, (called Veggie Chorizo ~ from Yves, over at Whole Foods) that I enjoy & it adds just the right flavor to this Taco Salad. Though, it would be just as tasty if you only used the canned chili beans.
Making a baked flour tortilla 'bowl' is super easy to do & makes this Taco Salad look just like you ordered it in a restaurant. I load it up with my favorite salad greens & top it with the Veggie Chorizo, chili beans, cheese, plain yogurt (instead of sour cream) cheese, radishes, cilantro, onion, olives, salsa & dressing. My new
favorite spicy dressing is - Marketside Chipotle Ranch, from Walmart. It is
their own instore brand & they sell it over in the produce section. Try some, it is awesome!
Enjoy ~ Olé!!
