KITTENCAL'S TACO SALAD FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Brown ground beef with the chopped yellow onion (not red).
• Add in only 1 package taco mix (and water according to the package direction); set aside to cool completely.
• In a large bowl, mix together chopped lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese (can use more than 2 cups if desired, and the cheese may be cubed small instead of shredded) avocados, red onion, olives, and the second package of taco seasoning mix.
• Add to cooled beef mixture; toss to combine.
• Just before serving toss with the salad dressing.
• The last step (JUST BEFORE SERVING) is to mix in about three-quarters of the package of crushed Doritos, leaving the rest on the side for your guests who want extra (they will get soggy if you mix them in too early!).
