KITTENCAL'S TACO SALAD FOR A CROWD

Kittencal's Taco Salad for a Crowd image

I have made this many times to serve at get togethers and I always receive rave reviews from everyone! if desired the amounts may reduced to half --- to save some time the beef may be cooked a day ahead, and refrigerated overnight as it must be cooled completely before adding the ingredients in with it, you may want to purchase two bags of nacho chips and use one to serve on the side --- when cooking the ground beef, I always try to leave it into larger size chunks, it looks better in the salad, really you may use any size bag of nachos that you like, the 12 cups size is only estimated, you can add any amount desired in with the ground beef/salad mixture, just make sure to add them just before serving as they tend to get soggy --- see my recipe#76616 -- I sometimes add in a can of drained and rinsed black beans :)

Time 30m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 lbs lean ground beef
2 (1 1/4 ounce) packages taco seasoning mix
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 red onion, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 heads iceberg lettuce, chopped
4 tomatoes, chopped (I use Roma)
2 avocados, peeled and chopped
1 1/2 cups black olives, sliced
12 cups nacho chips, 1 large (I use Doritos)
1 (8 ounce) bottle Catalina dressing (my The Best French Salad Dressing will also work well)

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!).

TACO TWISTS

Taco Twists image

Why serve tacos only in ordinary flour or corn tortillas? For a mouthwatering change of pace, bake the taco beef in flaky, golden crescent rolls. My family enjoys these for a warm lunch or light dinner.-Carla Kreider, Quarryville, Pennsylvania

TWISTED TACO SALAD WITH FRITOS

Twisted Taco Salad With Fritos image

This is a tweaked recipe from a family friend. It's awesome and makes a huge serving; perfect for potlucks. If not eating immediately, I put the cheese, onion and lettuce in a ziploc bag, the chopped tomatoes in a separate bag and keep the meat warm in a carrier [I like to keep it warm], then I assemble just before time to eat..mixing together and adding chips and dressing. I HATE soggy Dorito taco salad, so this fits the bill. My most requested "bring a dish" recipe!

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs ground beef, browned and drained
1 head iceberg lettuce, chopped
5 roma tomatoes, diced
4 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 medium sweet onion, chopped
14 1/2 ounces Fritos corn chips
1 (16 ounce) bottle western salad dressing
garlic salt

Steps:

Brown ground beef in skillet and drain. Season with garlic salt to taste.
Add chopped lettuce, chopped and seeded tomatoes, cheese and onion to big bowl.
If eating immediately, add warm ground beef to salad mixture.
Just before serviing mix in Fritos and Western Salad Dressing. Be sure to mix carefully and don't dump the entire bottle of dressing in at once. You want to lightly coat with the dressing, not drown the salad in it. I always leave a little on the side if someone wants more.
