Gluten Free Taco Salad



I'm always looking for new recipes using ground beef. While I was shopping in Trader Joe's, I spotted a box of gluten free taco shells and gluten free taco seasoning mix. So, I picked up all the ingredients for tacos. When I opened the shells they were really small, not much room for filling. Then I remembered this recipe for taco salad. Easy, a salad with all the taco toppings on top. Break up the taco shells and add for crunch! Quick and easy dinner.
