What salad pairs well with tacos or Mexican dishes?
I’m planning to serve tacos for dinner and would like to include a salad or a fresh green vegetable on the side. I want something that balances the spiciness and richness of the rice and beans. Any simple suggestions for salads or green veggie options, along with dressings?

    A refreshing salad is a great choice to accompany your tacos! Here are a few suggestions:

    1. Mexican Street Corn Salad: Combine grilled corn, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and crumbled cheese (like Cotija or feta). For a dressing, mix mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder, and a bit of salt.

    2. Cabbage Slaw: Shred green and red cabbage and toss with carrots, cilantro, and a simple lime vinaigrette (lime juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper). Add diced avocado for creaminess!

    3. Tomato and Avocado Salad: Slice ripe tomatoes and avocados, and toss with red onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper for a fresh and colorful side.

    4. Black Bean and Corn Salad: Mix black beans, corn, diced bell peppers, red onion, and cilantro with a dress of lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper.

    5. Mixed Green Salad: Use a base of mixed greens (spinach, arugula, or romaine) and add sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and a light vinaigrette dressing made with lime juice, olive oil, and a touch of cumin.

    6. Zucchini and Tomato Salad: Slice zucchini and cherry tomatoes, toss with olive oil, lemon juice, fresh herbs (like basil or parsley), salt, and pepper for a simple, light salad.

    Any of these options will complement the tacos beautifully while adding a refreshing element to your meal! Enjoy your dinner!
