BEST TACO SALAD!



Best Taco Salad! image

I got this recipe from a friend more than 20 years ago and it remains a family favorite espcially on hot summer days. I cook the beef early in the morning. Sometimes even chop all of the ingredients then, too, so all I have to do is throw everything together when it is time for dinner. Teenagers especially love this. That is a bonus! Have yet to find anyone who doesn't love this super easy salad for dinner.

Taco Salad is a show-stopper dinner, if you do it right. Plus it's healthy! I'll show you all my tips (and the best ingredients) for Taco Salad, Done Right. Plus two taco salad dressing recipes to choose from!

Provided by Karen

Categories     Salad

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup McCormick's Premium Taco Seasoning
3/4 cup water
1 head Romaine lettuce
1/2 cup green onions (chopped)
1 bunch cilantro (chopped)
1 & 1/2 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)
1 & 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes (or chopped tomatoes of any kind)
8 radishes (thinly sliced)
1/2 red onion (chopped)
2 avocados (chopped (and/or 1 cup guacamole))
1 cup frozen corn (thawed)
1-2 jalapeños (sliced)
Juanitas tortilla chips ( or Fritos, crushed)
sour cream (to taste (optional))
restaurant style salsa (to taste (optional))
sliced limes (to garnish)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 (.4-oz) package Buttermilk Ranch Seasoning
1 serrano pepper (roughly chopped)
2 tomatillos (halved)
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 lime zest
1 lime Juice
milk (if the dressing is too thick)
1 cup sour cream
1/3 cup Restaurant Style Salsa
1 teaspoon taco seasoning (**)
1 lime Zest
1 lime juice

Steps:

  • Start with the taco meat.** Brown 1 pound ground beef in a skillet on the stove, over medium heat. Break up the meat into small pieces. Once it is no longer pink (3-5 minutes), remove from heat. Tilt the pan and scoop the grease into a foil-lined bowl (then refrigerate and toss when solidified). Return the pan back to the stove and set over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup Premium McCormick's taco seasoning. (Or a regular taco packet will do. See notes for a homemade recipe.) Add 3/4 cup water to the pan. Let the mixture come to a simmer. Turn off the heat when there is still thickened liquid at the bottom of the pan. If you cook until all the liquid has evaporated, you will have dry taco meat; no thanks. Set aside and keep warm, covered.
  • Prep the lettuce and herbs. Chop the romaine into bite size pieces and dry in a salad spinner (or dry off with paper towels). Add 1/2 cup chopped green onions and 1 bunch of chopped cilantro. Spin to mix, or add to a large bowl and toss together.
  • Prep your toppings. Grate 1 and 1/2 cups cheddar cheese. Chop 1 and 1/2 cups tomatoes. Thinly slice 8 radishes. Dice half a red onion. Chop 2 avocados (or make a quick guacamole with them by adding a bit of lime and salt). Thaw out 1 cup of frozen corn (I usually stick it in the microwave for 20 seconds and then let it finish thawing on the counter). Slice 1 or 2 jalapeno peppers. Crush some Juanitas or Fritos, but leave some whole for garnishing.
