Low Carb Taco Salad Recipe

I was craving food yesterday. I know that sounds strange, but there are some days that I just eat whatever is fast and convenient. I end up eating things like eggs, jerky, nuts, cottage cheese, protein bars, and other quick things like that. Yesterday, I needed food but it was so hot that last thing I wanted to do was cook and heat up the house. So I thought it was the perfect day to whip up my Low Carb Taco Salad Recipe.

Perfect for a fast lunch or dinner, this salad is loaded with healthy fats, greens, proteins, and best of all, flavor! Just right for a hot summer day or when you want a light meal. But don’t be surprised. This salad is filing!
