4. Easy Healthy Taco Salad

The easy healthy taco salad is a Mexican-inspired salad that can be very delicious, filling, and healthy, especially if paired with ground beef. This quick and easy-to-make salad is low in calories and a source of protein and fat, nutrients each of which has its own set of health benefits. For example, fats help protect the body from trauma, keep the body warm, facilitate vitamins, and store energy. On the other hand, proteins help with weight control and reduce the risk of sarcopenia(a condition characterized by the progressive loss of physical function and muscle mass that’s commonly associated with older adults). Apart from these essential nutrients are key for the structure, function, as well as regulation of all the tissues and organs found in the body.

  1. 2 tbsp of taco seasoning.
  2. 3/4 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.
  3. 1 lb of ground beef.
  4. 1/3 cup of salsa(a nice sauce made from onions, tomatoes, chili peppers, and a range of spices, served with Spanish or Mexican food).
  5. 1 tsp of avocado oil.
  6. 1 medium, cubed avocado.
  7. 1/3 cup of sour cream.
  8. 8 oz of chopped romaine lettuce.
  9. 1/2 a cup of chopped green onions.
  10. 1-1/3 cup of halved grape tomatoes.
Directions:
  1. In a medium-size skillet, heat oil over medium to high heat until the oil is hot enough.
  2. Next, add ground beef and stir fry, breaking up the pieces with a spatula, for approximately 10 minutes, or until the beef is browned and the moisture is gone.
  3. After that, stir the taco seasoning into the ground beef until perfectly combined.
  4. Meanwhile, combine together all the other remaining ingredients in a bowl of the appropriate size.
  5. Thereafter, add the ground beef, combining everything together.
  6. Finally, serve warm with the appropriate pairing or drink

5. Vegan Cobb Salad

The vegan cob salad is one of the quickest and easy salad recipes you can make at home as it does not entail any cooking. Pairing quite well with coconut bacon, this salad is equally yummy, filling, and healthy with approximately 590 calories per serving. Here is a 10-minute vegan cob salad recipe that yields six servings;

Ingredients:
  1. 3 cups of sweet corn.
  2. 3 cups of cherry tomatoes, sliced in half.
  3. 9 heads of romaine( a type of lettuce with long narrow firm leaves).
  4. 3 cups of crispy roasted or canned chickpeas.

  6. 2 cups of vegan ranch dressing.
  7. 1-1/2 cups of coconut bacon.
  8. 1-1/2 cups of quartered radishes.
  9. Fresh chopped parsley, to garnish
  10. Salt and pepper, to taste.
Directions:
  1. Put the romaine heads in a bowl of the appropriate size and arrange the other ingredients over the top.
