Beef Fajita Salad with Creamy Lime Yogurt Dressing is a hearty salad that can be served at your next fiesta.
Since Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow, you can run to the grocery store and get these simple ingredients today. Your family and friends will enjoy digging into this salad.
The warmer months of the year are getting here and I really love making salads into entrees when the weather is hot outside.
This salad is a great low-carb alternative to eating traditional fajitas. The warm seasoned beef and pepper/onion mixture is a great way to make a salad into a meal.
I had to make a crispy topping to add some "crunch" to my salad. I simply fried some tortilla strips and a few minutes later I had the perfect accent to this salad.
I decided to make this salad complete with a healthy creamy lime yogurt dressing. This dressing compliments the salad with some of the same seasonings I used to marinate the meat. The tangy, creamy, rich dressing makes you feel like you have a fiesta in your mouth.
All I needed was a fork and a glass of my pink grapefruit margarita to make me want to say "ole'!!"
