Step 2: Make the sauce

In a small bow, mix together yogurt, green chile sauce, and lime juice until homogenous and desired spice/acidity is reached.

Step 3: Assemble the bowl

Chop the veggies to your desired size, and grate the cheese. To assemble, add the lettuce as a base, then follow with 1/3 of the beef, grated cheese, pickled jalapeños, red onion, and the green chile yogurt sauce. Mix it all up and then eat it with a serving tortilla chips.
