Taco Salads

Taco Salad
A friend recently shared her recipe for taco salads ( I could live off of taco salads!) and it inspired me to do this post sharing both of our versions. I hope you enjoy, give them both a try. :)

My version
2lbs sliced grilled or baked chicken (cooled)
1 med. head of Romano lettuce (bit sized)
1 container of cherry tomatoes or 3 medium tomatoes (diced)
1/2 can black olives (sliced)
1 cup rinsed Black beans
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
1 sliced avocado...
Cheddar cheese and Italian or Catalina dressing (amounts as desired)

Jenn's Version
Ingrediants
1 1/2 lbs. ground turkey (or beef)
1 sm. onion
1 med. head lettuce(cut to bite size)
3 med. tomatoes(diced)
1 envelope taco seasoning mix
1(4oz.) package grated sharp cheddar
1/2 can(3-4 ozs.) black olives(sliced)
2 C crushed taco flavored chips
about 1/2 C Italian or Catalina dressing

Brown meat and onions; drain, and let cool. Then mix all ingredients, toss w/dressing.

Happy eating!
