This was great. I used black beans and added some chipotle chiles in adobo sauce to the meat to give it some heat, rather than using hot sauce. I also put it all into a taco salad shell and used shredded cheddar and a runny cheddar sauce I made. Who cares if the calories are high. A meal like this obviuosly is not too healthy so if you dont like it, just dont eat it. Dont complain about it.
Season with low salt/salt free Mexican seasonings--make your own to taste: a little chili powder, cayenne, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, etc. will reduce the sodium. Low sodium beans, if you prefer, extra lean ground beef, low fat or fat free cheese. make your own low fat dressing or use favorite salsa and some low fat/fat free sour cream. I like throwing on some sliced avacado and skipping the cheese and crushed chips.

Sounds good, however, the calories, fat and sodium are over the top.
I'm concerned about the calories in this salad. If that is correct, I will never make this salad or eat one again.
I haven't made this recipe yet because I don't know what green goddess salad dressing is. I'm sure that my kids will love this salad.
Very good, will change the dressings to a salsa for fewer calories, could also use black beans instead of red beans.
It has way too much sodium, and the calories for 1 serving, are you sure this is correct?
crunchy and flavorful!
