Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 2 ounce packages taco seasoning
- 3 heads romaine lettuce chopped
- 1 .5 ounce can pinto beans
- 1 ounce bag Nacho Cheese Doritos
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 1 small yellow onion finely diced
- 1 green bell pepper finely diced
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup pickled jalapenos
- 2 .25 ounce cans sliced black olives
- 1 cup Catalina or french dressing
- 1 cup crema
Instructions
- Cook 2 pounds of ground beef over medium heat, using a wooden spoon to break into small pieces as it cooks.
- Add 2 (1 ounce) packages of taco seasoning to the cooking ground beef. Stir to combine.
- Continue cooking until the beef is fully cooked, around 8 minutes.
- Remove the beef from heat. Once cooled, strain off any excess grease.
- Add the pinto beans, halved cherry tomatoes, diced onion, diced bell pepper, sliced black olives, pickled jalapenos, and cheddar cheese to small individual bowls. Add crema and Catalina or French dressing to pourable containers.
- Get creative! Arrange the bowls as you’d like on a charcuterie board. Then, fill in the remaining areas with chopped Romaine lettuce.
- Add the taco-seasoned ground beef to a medium-sized bowl to serve alongside the charcuterie board. Pour the Nacho Cheese Doritos into a bowl or onto a plate or leave ‘em in the bag!
- Serves 8 lucky people.
Notes
- My top tip for this Taco Salad Bar is to have fun with the ingredients! Add or subtract whatever you'd like - not a fan of beans? Don't include them! Prefer a more traditional tortilla chip? Use a corn tortilla chip instead of Doritos!
