Happy Monday! I hope you all had a relaxing weekend.  I did a whole lot of nothing and enjoyed every minute!

I thought I would help start off your week with a new recipe that’s super easy to make – Easy Taco Salad.

This salad was inspired by my favorite taco recipe.  It’s filling and we always have left overs for a great lunch then ext day.  Hope you enjoy!

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 green pepper
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 tsp garlic salt
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• 1/4 tsp ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
• shredded lettuce
• 1/3 C. shredded mexican cheese
• shredded mexican cheese for topping
• crushed tortilla chips
• sour cream, salsa, green peppers, etc for topping

Stir in garlic salt, cinnamon, cumin, all spice and pepper and tomato sauce.  Simmer and cover for 5 minutes stirring occasionally.

Stir in 1/3 cup shredded cheese into meat mixture.  Stir until melted.

To assemble salad, start with lining bowl with shredded lettuce.  Spoon about 1/3 cup of taco filling into each bowl and garnish with the toppings of your choosing; cheese, crushed tortilla chips, sour cream, etc.
