This Taco Chopped Salad is fresh, flavorful and easy to customize with your favorite vegetables. It is a perfect side dish option for everything from steak to burgers to enchiladas and beyond.

Barbara was invited to a girls luncheon with the assignment of a side to go with the main dish of quesadillas. She wanted a healthy, fresh option. This Taco Chopped Salad hit the spot. The best part…not feeling guilty about going back for seconds.

Taco Chopped Salad is a perfect side dish option for everything from steak to burgers to enchiladas and beyond.

For the dressing, she used something that she always has on hand – prepackaged taco seasoning. If you prefer to make your own, here’s a good taco seasoning recipe from The Country Cook.

A great thing about this Taco Chopped Salad recipe is that you can modify it for your (or your picky family’s) liking. Feel free to leave a vegetable out or swap one for a vegetable that is already in the fridge.  A cup of sweet corn or even an avocado chopped into small pieces would be great in this salad.

It is also easy to double for a crowd! An easy way to stretch a salad like this is to add some lettuce – romaine would be a great choice, but regular iceberg lettuce works too! Just remember that you may need to bump up the amount of dressing if you add lettuce or more veggies.
