This taco salad is made with juicy, slow cooker salsa chicken, romaine lettuce and topped with great things like sweet corn, black beans and avocado.

Ingredients

  • Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken
  • 1-2 Whole Romaine Lettuce, chopped
  • 2 cans Black Beans, drained and rinsed

  • Serve with: Siete Grain Free Tortilla Chips

Instructions

  1. Prep the lettuce: Chop the lettuce and transfer it to a large bowl.
  2. Make the crema: Add the yogurt, adobo sauce and lime juice to a small bowl and stir to combine.

Notes

  • Prep Time: The slow cooker chicken is not included in this prep time. 
  • Romaine Lettuce: I purchase the large individual whole heads. 
  • Chicken: If the meat is pretty juicy, you may need to drain it just a bit before adding it to the taco salad. 
  • Leftovers: You can refrigerate the chicken in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or it freezes well.
