Easy Taco Salad

When I was growing up, we used to have taco salad dinners all the time. I made a healthier paleo version for dinner that my finace really loved. Instead of a salad dressing, I prefer to eat it with guacamole. Whole foods makes it fresh everyday, which makes weeknight dinner much easier. I think this is definitely a repeat.
