Vegetarian Taco Slaw with Creamy Cilantro Lime Dressing

You guys, I must make taco salad once a week. 

These are some ingredients you can always find in my fridge: cilantro, sour cream, carrots, cabbage.  You will also always find frozen corn in my freezer and black beans in the pantry. 

That’s not the reason I make this so much though! It is super flavorful and one of Miles’ fave dinners (especially topped with my taco turkey ) and super easy to throw together for a mid-week meal. Not to mention at-work lunches the next day… mmm yas. 

For Miles’ Christmas present this year I booked a campground for every month for the next 6 months. This past weekend was Los Prietos in Santa Barbara, which was totally epic! Everything is amazingly green and we did an awesome hike up to an abandoned castle. I highly recommend.
