Taco Salad

My family has had Taco Salad as a staple ever since I can remember.  I think its changed a little as the years go on, but this is how I make it.

1-2 C. cooked ground turkey (I cook a ton and freeze 2c/baggie)
1 can black beans
2 C. frozen corn
Taco Seasoning
lettuce
tortillas or tortilla chips
ranch dressing
cheese

Combine ground turkey, black beans, frozen corn, and a little water.  Mix in taco seasoning to your taste (I probably put too much in, but I love it).  We vary how we eat it, depending on if we have tortillas or tortilla chip.

I layer a bunch of lettuce, chips, and meat mixture.  Then I drizzle a little ranch and sprinkle a little cheese. Yumm.

I also like to make it quesadilla style.  Two tortillas with meat mixture and a little cheese inbetween.  Then top with lettuce, tomatoes, and ranch dressing if you have that stuff.
