Most everyone has had a taco salad at a restaurant before. It's delicious, has an explosion of flavors, and is a great way to switch up the normal tex-mex-style dish. Instead of going out to get one next time, try making on at home. Making your own is very easy, much less expensive, and tastier You can even use leftover burgers to make this recipe. Just crumble up the beef and add it to the veggies after they have been sauted. If you're doing this, start cooking the onions and garlic in a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. You can serve this salad two ways: add the hot beef mixture to the greens right away, or cool the beef mixture for about 30 minutes and refrigerate it. Then stir well and use it to top the greens.
