Vegetarian Taco Salad - Low Fat
By: Brooke the Cook in WI

No meat or meat substitutes - great for winter days when fresh veggies are hard to find. Yummy vegetarian taco salad that even my 11 year old enjoys. Polenta corn chips have only 3.5g of fat per ounce - I use SOLEA polenta chips.
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 16 ounces kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 8 3/4 ounces corn, drained
- 4 ounces green chilies
- 2-3 roma tomatoes, diced
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1/3 cup light sour cream
- 4-5 cups mixed greens, shredded
- 5 ounces baked corn tortilla chips or polenta corn chips, broken
Directions
1
Stir first seven ingredients (through sour cream) together in a large bowl until combined.2
Gently stir in mixed greens (greens will wilt if there are leftovers, so I usually just throw the greens on the serving plate!).3
Layer chips on serving plates and top with taco mixture.4
Serve with your favorite taco toppings if desired, olives, shredded cheese, taco sauce, etc.

This was an excellent taco salad. I mixed the dressing with the light sour cream, taco seasoning and green chilies and let that chill for about an hour. The placed the lettuce on top of some Taco Flavored doritoes, topped that with the remaining ingredients, with the addition of black beans and a little cheddar cheese. Put the dressing on top for a wonderful meal. I made taco meat for DH because I knew he would want some meat, but I didn't miss it at all. Thanks. Made for SSC Pet Parade.

Delicious! I used Taco Seasoning Mix, Baked Tostitos Scoops and canned tomatoes since fresh aren't their best at this time of year. Next time I'll try using salsa. Thanks for posting. Made for Zaar Stars.

You don't need to be a vegetarian to love this colorful, crunchy salad. The beans make it "meaty." I thought this was super quick to make and super yummy to eat! Being lowfat and healthy is an added bonus. I like my cheese, so I sprinkled shredded cheddar on top. If I had cilantro, I would have garnished with that, too..... next time! Thanx!

YUMMY! I made this with a 3-bean mix and subbed salsa for the tomatoes. I also added cilantro and light shredded cheddar. Very satisfying. Made for the Zaar Stars tag game.
