Tex-Mex Stuffed Caesar Spears

Ingredients

• 1 pkg Easy Peasy Taco Mix
• 2 cups hot water
• ¹⁄₂ large avocado
• 5 tbsp water
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• Sea Salt, to taste
• Black Pepper, to taste
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• ¹⁄₂ pint cherry tomatoes, about 10
• 3 cups tortilla chips
• 2 heads romaine hearts
• 2 cups corn niblets

Preparation

1. In a bowl, combine mix and hot water; set aside to hydrate, about 5 min.
2. Meanwhile, in a food processor or using an immersion blender, combine avocado, water, lemon juice, garlic, and mustard. Blend until smooth. Taste, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
3. In a large non-stick fry pan, heat oil over medium-high heat.
4. Add hydrated taco mix; cook, stirring often, until liquid has absorbed, about 5–7 min. Stir gently to avoid mashing.
5. Slice tomatoes in half; coarsely crush chips.
6. To assemble, divide lettuce leaves between four plates (about 6 leaves per plate). For each serving, stack a few leaves to make sturdy bases. Stuff with taco mix; top with tomatoes, chips, and corn. Drizzle with dressing.
