My mom made the best Taco Salad when I was growing up. I loved it!
She used:
~Doritos Nacho Chips
~Seasoned Taco Meat
~Iceberg Lettuce
~Cheese
~Tomatoes
~ Catalina dressing
or Western Dressing.
I added a few ingredients to make it a bit more filling and healthy.
I used:
~Baby Lettuce Greens along with the Iceberg Lettuce (for antioxidants)
~Black Beans (for more fiber & protein)
~Organic Tomatoes
~Organic Corn (for an added texture)
~Organic Cheese
~A brand of Nacho Chips that had no hydrogenated oils or preservatives in them
~A Taco Seasoning Mix that had no msg or fillers in it.
~Organic, Grass Fed Beef
~Catalina Dressing
(I chose this brand because it had no high fructose corn syrup in it)
This is a no recipe- recipe. You just brown a pound of beef, drain, then season it with taco seasoning. Prepare all other ingredients–tear iceberg lettuce, grate cheese, dice tomatoes, drain & rinse beans, slightly crush the chips. Throw all ingredients into a large bowl. I just eye ball it, adding a little of this and a little of that!
Pour desired amount of dressing on top
Toss, serve and enjoy!!
