The Preparation
Taco Salad:
2 tablespoon olive oil
28 ounce ground beef
2 tablespoon taco seasoning
5 ounce romaine lettuce, sliced thin
4 ounce fresh tomatoes, diced
1/4 medium red onion, wedges
Guacamole:
2 medium avocado
2 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoon fresh cilantro
1/4 medium red onion, diced
Salt and pepper to taste
Salsa:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup salsa
Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish:
1/2 cup shredded Mexican casserole
4 tablespoon fresh cilantro
1 medium lime
The Execution
Measure out and prepare all the ingredients.
Peel and de-seed the avocado. Mash it up in a bowl using a fork.
Add in the minced garlic, lime juice, chopped cilantro, and diced onion. Stir this all together while mashing it all into the avocado. Season with salt and pepper. Keep stirring and mashing until you get to your preferred guacamole texture.
In a frying pan over medium heat, add olive oil and the ground beef. Cook until the meat starts to turn darker brown, about 8-10 minutes.
After the meat is almost cooked through, add in the taco seasoning and stir so it all mixes together. Let simmer for 2-4 minutes more.
Make the salsa by combining mayonnaise and salsa in a bowl. Stir to combine well.
Plate the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions as the base of the salad. Layer it with the taco meat, guacamole, and creamy salsa.
Finish it off with lime wedges, shredded cheese, and of course cilantro!
