Prep Time: 15 mins | Servings: 6-8
Ingredients:
-
1 lb ground beef (or turkey/chicken)
-
1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade blend)
-
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
-
1 (10.5 oz) bag Doritos (Nacho Cheese or Cool Ranch), crushed

1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained & rinsed

1 avocado, diced (optional)
-
½ cup Catalina dressing (or French/Ranch dressing)

Instructions:

Cook the meat: Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain excess fat, then stir in taco seasoning + ¼ cup water. Simmer 5 mins, then let cool slightly.
-
Prep veggies: Chop lettuce, dice tomatoes, onion, and avocado.
-
Assemble salad: In a large bowl, combine lettuce, seasoned beef, black beans, corn, tomatoes, onion, and cheese.
-
Add crunch: Just before serving, mix in crushed Doritos (so they stay crispy).
-
Dress it up: Drizzle with Catalina dressing (or your favorite dressing) and toss gently.
-
Serve: Top with avocado, extra cheese, sour cream, or salsa if desired.
Tips:
-
Make it ahead? Keep Doritos & dressing separate until serving.

Vegetarian? Swap beef for plant-based crumbles or extra beans.
