Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 head lettuce, washed & drained well
1 (8 ounce) container grape tomatoes
1 (12 ounce) bag Doritos (I prefer Pepper Jack or Extra Nacho)
2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 (8 ounce) bottle fat-free Catalina dressing (regular makes it way too greasy!!)
1/2 lb ground beef
taco seasoning

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning - follow package directions. Alow to cool slightly or put in refrigerator if you don't want to use the salad right away.
  • TEAR lettuce into bite size pieces, but into bowl. Cut tomatoes in half, and spread out on top of lettuce. Put cheese on top of tomatoes. Cover and chill until ready to serve. Just before serving, add Doritos, meat (if refrigerated, use microwave to take chill off of meat), and salad dressing. Toss well!
  • Don't skimp on the cheese or doritos, the more the better! I use the whole bag of Dorito's. Not snack size, or Extra large, just the regular size bag -- .

TACO SALAD



Taco salad image

Enjoy all the flavours of a taco night in this colourful Tex-Mex salad. Just like a taco, you can make it your own and add your favourite toppings

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Lunch

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 red onion, sliced
1 lime, juiced
1 tbsp sunflower oil
400g lean beef mince
½ pack taco or fajita seasoning
1 tbsp tomato purée
400g can black beans, drained but not rinsed
200g tortilla chips
1 small iceberg lettuce, shredded
2 avocados, peeled and sliced
2 tomatoes, chopped into chunks
100g feta, crumbled
small bunch of coriander, chopped or leaves picked
½ lime, juiced
5 tbsp soured cream
chilli sauce (optional), plus extra to serve

Steps:

  • Mix the red onion with half the lime juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl, then set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-low heat, and crumble in the mince. Cook for 15-20 mins - the mince will release some liquid, but once this has bubbled away, it will sizzle in its own fat. At this point, stir or toss with a wooden spoon so the mince browns and caramelises all over. If the pan becomes too dry, add a drizzle more oil. When the mince is well toasted, sprinkle over the taco seasoning and cook for 2 mins, then stir through the tomato purée and pour over the rest of the lime juice and let it sizzle for another minute. Stir through the black beans and turn up the heat to medium, continuing to cook until everything is hot. Taste for seasoning, then set aside.
  • To make the dressing, mix the lime juice with the soured cream and chilli sauce, if using, season, then set aside.
  • Scatter a handful of tortilla chips into a bowl, then add a layer of lettuce, then the mince and black beans. Top with the avocado slices, chopped tomato, pickled red onions, along with any juices, and the feta. Drizzle with the dressing, then finally scatter over the coriander. Tuck more tortilla chips around the sides of the bowl, then serve.

BEST TACO SALAD!



Best Taco Salad! image

I got this recipe from a friend more than 20 years ago and it remains a family favorite espcially on hot summer days. I cook the beef early in the morning. Sometimes even chop all of the ingredients then, too, so all I have to do is throw everything together when it is time for dinner. Teenagers especially love this. That is a bonus! Have yet to find anyone who doesn't love this super easy salad for dinner.
