Doritos Taco Salad

Another family favorite recipe. Its different, but SO good! Definitely not like a traditional taco salad. Its a nice alternative though!

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground beef or ground turkey

1 large onion, diced

1 (15 oz) can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed, optional

1 medium-large head of iceberg lettuce, chopped into bite sized pieces or shredded

1 large tomato, diced

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1 (9.5 oz) bag nacho cheese Doritos, broken up into bite sized pieces*

1 cup salsa

1 cup Catalina or French dressing (I use Kraft Catalina)

*For better presentation, only break up 1/2 of the bag of Doritos and place remaining Doritos around taco salad on plate

Directions:

Brown the ground beef and 1/2 of the diced onions in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up into pieces with a wooden spoon.

Add the beans and stir over medium heat until beans warmed through. Set aside.

In a large serving bowl, combine the cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, remaining onion, and salsa.

Stir in ground beef mixture.

Add the Doritos and dressing. Toss to coat.

Sprinkle with additional shredded cheese, if desired.

Serve.
