Taco salad with fried egg

I used leftovers from my precious post “veggie burritos” to help make this salad and I loved it! All I needed besides the leftovers was an egg and an orange bell pepper

I used a wheat tortilla then topped it with the guacamole I made yesterday

Then I placed a couple of scoops of the black bean mixture

I then added diced cherry tomatoes and orange bell pepper

I topped that with a cilantro-tomatillo dressing

Then I fried an egg, seasoned it with salt and pepper and places it on the salad

I garnished it with a piece of cilantro and then enjoyed it!! I love when I can get two dinners out of one.
