If you’ve been following us for a while, you’ll know that my family love a quick and easy meal hack. This easy taco salad is now our new go-to, with its fresh ingredients, classic Mexican flavours and of course, creamy guacamole. Putting this recipe together was so fast, I even surprised myself. This easy taco salad is great for anyone on a low-carb diet, struggling to find something healthy that will still leave you feeling full and satisfied. Like our spicy Mexican beef wedges, crispy pork carnitas and our Huevos rancheros tortizza, there are still spoonfuls of tangy Mexican flavour, just without all of the unnecessary carbs. But if carbs make you as happy as they make me, feel free to add some of our fried tortilla chips on the side.
