Add the taco seasoning to the browned ground beef along with ½ cup of beef broth and simmer over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until the liquid is reduced and the meat mixture thickens.

While it is simmering, wash and dry your lettuce, chop it into bite-sized pieces, and place it in a large bowl.

Top your lettuce with the taco meat mixture, shredded cheese, then the rest of the toppings (except the avocado).

In a small bowl, combine the salsa, ranch dressing, and fresh lime juice until thoroughly combined.

You can use my homemade keto taco
seasoning instead of store-bought.

Drizzle ¼ of the dressing back and forth on the top of the taco salad, reserving the rest for individual servings.
Garnish with sliced jalapenos, sliced avocado, and chopped fresh cilantro.

*Use keto-friendly taco seasoning, salsa, and ranch dressing instead of store-bought for healthier alternatives

Make this ahead of time by preparing your meat in advance. Store it in the fridge, then add it to your salad when ready to serve.
