Do y'all make Taco Salad, the one that's been around forever that's made with Doritos and Catalina Dressing? If you haven't made it, You've probably had it at your mom's house or at a potluck or picnic. Maybe you've eaten it and forgotten just how good it is. I've been making this salad since the 80's, and it's still one of my most requested recipes. Hubby would happily eat this multiple times a week, he enjoys it that much.
A lot of people add taco seasoned ground beef to their Taco Salad, we never do, but we do serve it with grilled burgers. It's just soul soothing, yummy goodness, period!
This is so easy, it goes together in no time. Here's how you do it.
1 can of light red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 chopped onion, green onion is awesome in this salad
iceberg lettuce, shredded
sliced cherry or grape tomatoes
Handfuls of grated cheddar cheese
Handfuls of Nacho Doritos that you crush lightly with your hands.
Catalina Dressing
Put everything in a large salad bowl, ending with the Doritos, toss at last minute with the chips and serve.
Now wasn't that easy? It's not really a recipe, you just throw in what you like. You can use any kind of chip with this, Mexican corn chips, Fritos, etc. but the Doritos really are the best, because they have that great tangy, cheesy taste.
If you want to add seasoned and cooked ground beef, go for it and top it with a big dollop of sour cream. You want corn in it? That works, too.
So many possibilities with this, and you just can't go wrong, it's so good.
Note: I put the beans in the fridge overnight, and then drain and rinse at the last minute so they are cold.
