Loaded Taco Salad with Chipotle Lime Sauce  has been one of our favorites for years and I can’t believe I’ve never shared it with y’all before. But that changes today!

This salad is entree sized and perfect for a light dinner or prepped ahead for an easy on the go lunch. We eat this often in the summer when it’s so warm we can stand the thought of a heavy casserole is just too much.

This Loaded Taco Salad is really flexible allowing you can add or swap out any of your favorite toppings to customize the salad to your taste. My husband likes to add a few jalapeño slices to his but I’m not quite sure about all that spice so I let him have them all.

Once you’ve put the salad together you’ll want to top it off with this recipe for Chipotle Lime Sauce. This dressing is has a smokey flavor that compliments the beef and gives the salad just a bit of kick.
