Taco SaladOne more thing: if you think you'll have leftovers, I suggest that you do not mix it all together. Keep the ingredients separate. It can get a little soggy in the fridge overnight.
Brown 1 lb hamburger, drain
Add:
1 can kidney beans
1/2 onion
1/2 green pepper
1/2 package prepared italian dressing
(Marinate overnight)*
When ready to eat, add:
olives
8 dashes tabasco sauce
1/2 bottle chili sauce
1 package Doritos**
1 head lettuce
3-4 tomatoes
4 oz. shredded cheese
1 avocado
the rest of the dressing
Top with a dollop of sour cream and enjoy!
*I am rarely organized enough to marinate this overnight. But it's just as good if you marinate it for an hour before you eat it! :)
**I suppose you could use regular tortilla chips but we always splurge on the Doritos for this salad.
Do let me know if you try this out. I'd love to know if you like it as much as we do!
yum! i have a similar recipe:
ReplyDelete1 pkg salad mix (lettuce only)
1 lb turkey or hamburger ( prepared with taco seasoning packet)
1 tomato chopped
shredded cheddar cheese
Western dressing (to taste)
Doritos....crunched over top
Mix and enjoy. I like a lot of dressing.....
My guests go crazy over it. :)
Blessings,

I am so loving the whole recipe kick all my favorite bloggers seem to be on right now! This looks great, Stacy! Wanted to let you know I posted a link to the spinach salad on my blog... hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeletethanks for the idea! We did have taco salad tonight! I didn't have all your ingredients though but the improv was good... even toasting my leftover corn tortillas for a homemade chips. Koe

ReplyDeletenope! this is about the only salad my kids will all eat. you can't even detect the chili sauce. mmm!
I love this salad when you make it. I wonder if it would taste as good to me if I made it though?
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try this. For the sauce in our taco salad, we usually mix 1/2 salsa with 1/2 mayo. Even though it might sound weird, it's really good, and lots of people are surprised by how much they like it!
