Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 packet taco seasoning

1 cup lettuce, finely shredded

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

1/2 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1/2 cup diced red onion

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 avocado, diced

12 mini taco cones (store-bought or homemade)

1/4 cup sour cream (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Cook the Chicken: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground chicken and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.

    Season the Chicken: Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked chicken. Add 1/4 cup of water and stir to combine. Let it simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until the water has mostly evaporated, and the chicken is well-coated with seasoning.

      Prepare the Toppings: In a large bowl, combine the shredded lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, black beans, corn, diced red onion, and cilantro. Gently mix in the diced avocado.

        Assemble the Taco Cones: Take each mini taco cone and fill it with a generous spoonful of the seasoned chicken, then top with the fresh salad mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.

          Garnish and Serve: Place a dollop of sour cream on top of each cone and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.

            Enjoy: Serve the Mini Chicken Taco Salad Cones immediately for the best crunch and freshness. Perfect for parties, picnics, or a fun dinner!
