Taco Salad

Alright, most of my summer vegetarian recipes are simple and use a lot of what we have around the house.

I like to have themes for my meals...so if i'm craving Mexican, i'll do a taco salad or a version of a taco salad and I use these items.

Herdez Salsa (This is amazing)
Brown Rice
Black Beans
Corn
Onions
Avocado
Tortillas (optional)
Salad Greens
Morningstar Crumbles (these replace ground beef or turkey)
Some type of taco seasoning or a combination of cumin/coriander, red pepper flakes)

I saute the onions and spices..maybe some garlic...and then add the crumbles...I usually throw some water in with this.

Then I cook the other veggies...and the grain.

Top it with salsa, sometimes plain yogurt....and avocado.

This is just something simple I put together. I use my food scale and find the portions and enjoy!
