Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb 93/7 ground turkey
1 15 ounce can of black beans (rinsed and drained)
2-3 tablespoons homemade taco seasoning (or 1 (1.3 ounce) organic store-bought seasoning packet.)
1 1/4 cups salsa
5 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
1 quart cherry tomatoes (halved)
5 mini cucumbers (sliced)
1 small to medium red onion (chopped)
2 avocados (chopped)
juice from one lime
11 ounce jar of pickled jalapeños (drained and chopped)
5 cups chopped romaine lettuce

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey until it's no longer pink. Break up the meat into small pieces as it cooks.
  • Add the black beans, taco seasoning, and ¼ cup of water. Stir together and continue to cook until the taco mixture is hot and the water boils down.
  • Remove from heat and let the taco meat cool.
  • After the taco meat cools down, you can put the rest of the salad together.
  • Carefully cut the avocado and remove the pit. Then remove the flesh from the skin and chop it into small pieces. Squirt the lime juice over the avocado to help to prevent browning.
  • Divide the ingredients among mason jars starting with salsa, then adding greek yogurt, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, jalapeños, avocados, taco meat, then lettuce.
  • After layering everything, place the lid on, close tightly, and stick them in the fridge.
  • When ready to eat your taco salad, shake it real good and pour it into a bowl.
