Taco Salad


This cold taco salad dish is great as a side dish.  Perfect with grilled chicken or steak.  I personally, use it for my lunches, quick to serve and no heating involved.

Ingredients:

1 pound of ground round thoroughly cooked
1 16 ounce can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 small onion chopped
2 Roma tomatoes chopped
2 cups of lightly crushed Nacho Cheese Doritio chips
2 cups of shredded lettuce
1 1/2 cups of Catalina salad dressing


Mix all this together in a bowl, cover and place in the refrigerator.

I put each ingredient one at a time  in a large bowl in the order listed above.  Each time I put one of the items in the bowl, I mix well with 1/4 cup of Catalina.  By the time you get to the lettuce all the Catalina will be added.

Taste it, if you like one ingredient more, add more.  I use the Catalina lightly because it is sweet for me, and you may want more.  It has a great sweet kick about it that I think you find to be unique.

Enjoy,
