Notes
Ground beef, ground chicken, ground turkey, or shredded chicken or beef can be used for the recipe.
Spinach or shredded cabbage can be used in place of lettuce.
To use this recipe for meal prep lunches for the week don’t add dressing or sour cream until it’s ready to eat and layer the ingredients in a jar or container.
Skip the cheese and sour cream for a dairy free and paleo version.
We recommend making your own sugar-free taco seasoning since most store-bought brands add sugar.
