Ultimate Chicken Taco SaladHave you guys tried the new Tessemae’s Avocado Ranch dressing? WOW. I am absolutely crazy about it!! This Whole30 approved (dairy-free, gluten-free, sugar-free), thick and creamy, delicious avocado-infused ranch dressing goes good on everything! Seriously, put it on all the things! But my new favorite thing is drizzling it over this Ultimate Chicken Taco Salad (which I normally have a rendition of once a week).
