We make a large batch and meal prep it for lunch in a variety of ways from layering it on top of romaine lettuce, to a filling wheat tortilla rolled into a taco salad type burrito. A clean eating taco bowl is one of my husbands FAVES! 😋 If you are trying to lose weight and have not started meal prepping, you need to start this week!

Dave and I like to do this every Sunday morning before we head out for our Sunday Funday! This dish has all the Mexican flavors you love, but we are keeping it clean and low sodium! This bans the bloating that occurs with a high sodium diet! This salad is made with a healthy taco salad dressing you will enjoy!
Another option is to use ground turkey in this salad. Options? You could make ground turkey wraps, a clean eating burrito bowl as well as clean eating taco wraps.
- RELATED: This salad is a recreation of my favorite Whole Foods Detox Salad. The colors are beautiful and this makes one huge batch to easily store in separate containers for the weeks’ lunch or snack options.

How delicious! All the flavor minus the calories and sodium, LOVE that. A great meal in a bowl is such an easy way to enjoy a meal. I also appreciate that you’ve given a couple of different options for these ingredients – a wrap would be great for packing a week day lunch or a weekend picnic – delish!

I always feel better when I eat better but somehow I keep getting back on this pattern of eating bad and once you do it seems easy to just eat bad all of the time. I need to get back on with the healthy stuff again and this looks like a great way to get back into it. Not only could I use a detox but this looks like you are cheating not eating clean,what a wonderful recipe, this looks fantastic. Thank you for sharing!

I’ve been looking for good meal options to help my family improve our eating habits. This taco salad looks really good. I really like the addition of the avocado in the salad. I love corn and black beans so it should be a great option for us, sans onions though.

This looks absolutely delicious! I’ve never thought of a taco salad and detox in the same sentence but this sounds so interesting and also delicious! I will have to make it soon, can’t wait!

My kind of meal! I could eat a rice bowl every single day, and when it’s Tex-Mex inspired even better! These are all my favourite flavours in one bowl!

I think anyone would enjoy this whether they are doing clean eating or detox or not. It looks so good and flavorful and the fact that is good for you is an added bonus. I love the versatility of this as the taco salad can be used a base or added to something to make a meal the whole family will love.

This looks way too tasty to be that healthy! For real though, I can’t wait to try making this! And your info about the dandelion greens really surprised me. I knew they were edible, but I didn’t realize they were so good for you!

Oh! This made my mouth water! I love this flavor pack that’s meant to help you detox! I feel like I’d eat the whole bowl though! But yum! I’d never heard of dandelion greens before. So I’m definitely curious to find it!
