Join the discussionDo you put a dressing on this salad? If so, what kind?
If I use dressing, I usually just squeeze a 1/2 lemon or lime of the dish. Sometimes an olive oil/rice vinegar could work depending on the type of salad.
I like using homemade mayo as a dressing.. mixed with some salsa!
Great idea! Thanks for sharing
If I multiply this recipe, do I need to multiply the water too, or does it stay at 1/4cup?
If you are a member, you can adjust the serving sizes and all ingredients should adjust for you. Simply add this recipe to one of your menus, click on said menu, and under “Menu Resources” click the “+” and “-” buttons and then “download.” This should scale everything for you. 🙂
I’m not a member, so I can’t adjust the quantity.
I would suggest an avocado dressing. It’s great mixed in with a paleo ranch.
Thanks for the suggestion!
I use salsa as a dressing and guacamole as another “wet” ingredient.
Is a half pound of ground beef truly a serving? This seems a bit generous on the portions.
Yes, that is the serving size for this particular recipe. However, serving sizes on a nutrition label don’t always match what an individual wants to consume as a serving, so you can always feel free to either cut the recipe in half or freeze extra for leftovers rather than eating 8 ounces per serving. Totally up to you!
