I did a little Trader Joe’s shopping today which is one of my favorite things to do. Not only do I love their groceries but they have been the cleanest & safest place to shop during COVID-19.

I just made this Turkey Taco Salad for dinner tonight & thought I’d share the recipe with ya’ll. It’s super easy + healthy + quick + tastes amazing.

THE RECIPE

+ Ground turkey

+ White onion

+ Taco seasoning

+ Romaine

+ Black beans

+ Shredded cheese

+ Pico

+ Trader Joe’s Green Goddess salad dressing

In that order…

The recipe is super simple & straightforward. The items I listed are used in that order & combined in the end for a yummy taco salad. I used these Trader Joe’s items along with their ground turkey + a white onion + romaine lettuce + Green Goddess dressing.

HOW TO

Heat the white onion in a skillet with olive oil & add the ground turkey.

Cook for 15 minutes & then add the taco seasoning.

While this is cooking heat the black beans on the stovetop.

Once these are cooked…

First add the romaine lettuce to a bowl.

Next add a layer of black beans followed by the ground turkey.

Then top with shredded cheese + pico + Green Goddess dressing.

Add as much of the Green Goddess salad dressing as you’d like on top & enjoy!

TIPS

I like to use ground turkey because it’s a leaner meat but it tastes great with any protein. You can add ground beef, shredded chicken, shrimp, etc.

I use mainly Pico as the salad dressing on this. I add a TINY bit of Green Goddess dressing. It tastes very fresh & healthy with the pico as the dressing. I use Hot which adds spice to it as well.

This makes great leftovers but keep the beans & meat separate from the lettuce & re-make the cold salad the next day.

Pair with a skinny marg & enjoy your Friday night!!
