Probably real similar to many Taco Salad recipes out there, but made some changes for my fiance and hope everyone can enjoy it as we do! We eat this as a main course fast meal, so the serving size is an estimate. Goes great for informal parties too! *Sometimes I let the meat cool down and sometimes I mix everything while hot! *The Taco Bell Medium Taco Sauce gives it a little heat. I have prepared it with mild and medium and I prefer the medium blend. *I use about 4/5 of the lettuce shreds but use your own judgement. I have used the whole bag before, I just find that after you refrigerate the more lettuce you have used the more soggy it is going to seem. *Add tomatoes if you choose - my fiance is not a fan of tomatoes so I've never made it with tomatoes. Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef |
2 (1 1/4 ounce) packets taco bell taco seasoning |
1 large onion, diced |
1 (10 ounce) bag lettuce, shreds |
2 cups shredded taco blend cheese |
2 (2 1/4 ounce) cans sliced black olives (drained) |
1 (16 ounce) bag family size nacho cheese flavor doritos |
8 ounces catalina dressing |
8 ounces taco bell medium taco sauce |
Directions:
1. Brown the ground beef with onions.
2. Drain excess fat/oil from the pan leaving appx. 2 tablespoons.
3. Add taco seasoning and mix well with remaining oil.
4. Set aside to cool if you desire.
5. Open Doritos enough to release air and crunch them up.
6. Start adding remaining ingredients into a large mixing bowl. (I use one with
7. a lid for storage).
8. I usually add lettuce, then black olives, then cheese, and then Doritos.
9. After meat has cooled (your preference), add meat to mix.
10. Stir well.
11. Add Catalina Dressing and Taco Sauce and stir well.
12. Serve immediately or refrigerate for later. ENJOY!
