Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 batch ground beef for taco meat
  • 1 head romaine lettuce chopped, or iceberg lettuce
  • 2-3 Roma tomato diced (about 1 1/2 cups
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese grated
  • 15 ounces red kidney beans drained
  • 1 large avocado diced
  • 4-6 green onions chopped (I like lots of green onion)
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
  • 14.5 ounces Nacho Cheese Doritos partially crushed
  • 12 ounces thousand island salad dressing it's about 3/4 of a bottle of dressing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the taco meat by browning hamburger in a pan and adding taco seasoning to it.
  2. In a very large bowl, combine all salad ingredients except dressing and Doritos. Toss to combine.
  3. Add the partially crushed Doritos and Thousand Island dressing to the other salad ingredients and toss to evenly distribute the dressing.

Notes

  • You could add a small can of sliced black olives to this as well.  Except I'm not a fan, so I don't.  
  • I have seen French, Catalina or even Ranch dressing used in place of Thousand Island, but since I grew up with Thousand Island as the only option for this salad, it just doesn't taste the same with a substitution.
