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. 
Tips

Look for romaine hearts in the bagged salad section of the produce aisle. The leaves are crisp and sweet, perfect for stuffing!
