I love taco salad.
In fact, our Doritos Taco Salad recipe is one of the most popular on our site. And that got me thinking… could we put a different spin on taco salad? Why yes, yes we can! Check it out guys, we made Greek Taco Salad!! Feta, olives, and pita chips! This is going to be a new favorite, believe me!
Cook the ground turkey in a skillet until brown and crispy. Season with the Mediterranean herb and spice blend. You can also just a lemon pepper seasoning. Remove from the heat and allow to cool down slightly.
Add the lettuce to a large salad or mixing bowl! I’m using a romaine salad mix, but feel free to use whatever kind of lettuce you like or have on hand.
Add the remaining veggies and toss together until evenly combined.
Add the crumbled feta, cooked ground turkey and as much of the dressing as you’d like. To make things easier, we’re using a honey balsamic dressing from the store!
Right before serving add the crushed pita chips and stir to combine. You don’t want to add them too early or else they’ll get soggy.
It’s just like our Doritos Taco Salad, except with a Mediterranean twist. Try our Greek taco salad for your next party. You’re going to love it!
