This is great for big get togethers or for potlucks. Also you can substitute lean ground turkey instead of beef for a healthier dish.
Ingredients:
1 head lettuce
1 (16 ounce) bottle catalina dressing (16 - 18 fl.oz.)
1 bunch green onion (scallions)
1 -2 big tomatoes or 1 (8 ounce) package cherry tomatoes
1 (11 ounce) bag nacho cheese plain doritos
1 (6 ounce) can black olives (regular size)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb ground turkey
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope taco seasoning
Directions:

3. While the meat is browning clean and tear up the leaves of the head of lettuce and add it to the bowl the taco salad will be served inches.

7. When using the cherry tomatoes cut in half if preferred and add it to the bowl.
8. Cut up the green onions the bulb (white part) and half of the top or chive part (green part), pending on how much onion you like, then put it into the bowl.
9. Take three-fourths of the bag of Doritos and put it into another bag (i. e. an old loaf of bread bag or Ziploc bag) and crunch them up into about a third of the size of a full chip but you don’t want all small crumbs for chips, then add them to the bowl.
