I get asked all the time what I eat and my answer is, I eat a lot of Asian inspired and Mexican inspired meals, because they contain a ton of vegetables and don’t require dairy products! A non-dairy taco salad is possible and so tasty that you won’t even miss the cheese and sour cream, I promise. So here we go…
It’s summer so I used garden lettuce, I made a salad dressing from scratch using avocado, lime, & cilantro, and I made a black bean and corn salsa for kicks and giggles.
Avocado Cilantro Lime Dressing
1 avocado
1 cup cilantro
1 lime juiced
1/4 cup water, or more until desired consistency
Blend until smooth
Black Bean and Corn Salsa
1 can black beans, drained and strained
2 ears sweet corn, grilled and cut off
Onion to taste
Spicy pepper, such as jalapeno, serrano, etc, to taste
Drizzle with olive oil and fresh lime juice
