Ramadan Recipe: Taco Salad

This flavorful taco salad is a perfect iftar dish—light yet satisfying. Seasoned ground beef is simmered with taco seasoning, then combined with crisp romaine lettuce, bell peppers, cucumbers, and tomatoes. A zesty dressing made with mayonnaise, taco sauce, lime, and cilantro ties it all together. Top with crunchy tortilla chips for texture. For a healthier twist, use whole wheat toasted tortillas.
