Taco Salad
So this is my healthy meal prep version. Anything with fresh tomatoes and lettuce should be eaten first in the week. Let's be real here I have teenagers they eat this meal prep version adding lots of shredded cheddar cheese and Doritos. I usually make extra taco meat because they love making their own corn tortilla quesadillas with meat cheese and the tomato mix. Make the plans work for you!
