Taco Salad

1 pound lean ground beef, or lean ground turkey, browned.
1 packet of taco seasoning

1 bag salad mix
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 green pepper diced
1 red pepper diced
1 tomato diced
cheddar cheese
pepper jack cheese

crushed tortilla chips
salsa
ranch dressing

Brown 1 pound lean ground beef, or lean ground turkey (both are good, however we like ground turkey because it is healthier). Drain off fat and rinse meat, return to sauce pan and season with taco seasoning and about a 1/2 C water. Simmer until water cooks off. Add to large bowl with rest of salad ingredients, and toss lightly. Add to personal plate crushed tortilla chips and top with salsa and ranch dressing. A meal in and of itself. Minus out the chips and ranch dressing to save on carbohydrates and fat.
