With lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pepper, this is a veggie-heavy take on tacos! Organic corn chips bring the satisfying crunch for those who could not go without, and jalapeƱo peppers provide an optional kick.
Our taco seasoning blend is to our ground beef what Robin is to Batman: a perfect accomplice.
(Is that a dinner and a movie date idea? Perhaps.)
Allowing your dinner guests to build their own salads ensures that everyone will have theirs just how they like it (or have only themselves to blame!)
