FAMOUS TACO SALAD

Steps:

• Brown and drain the ground beef. Set aside on a paper towel to continue draining and cooling.
• Dressing: Mix the can of undrained chili beans, the thousand island dressing and the taco seasoning in a bowl. Stir well and set it to the side. (Makes a mean dip for that open bag of tortilla chips you have sitting there! You are cooking dinner, you must be slightly hungry!)
• Obtain a LARGE bowl. In that bowl place the following: 1 head of torn lettuce, the shredded cheese, chopped tomatoes and olives.
• Put the hamburger on top of the salad mixings.
• Find a small child, or a small child at heart and place a slit in the chip bag to avoid a disastrous explosion. Have child smush chips to small pieces. I am sure that "smush" is a highly scientific culinary term! DO NOT MAKE CHIP POWDER, just small pieces. Dump the chips on top of the lettuce mixture.
• Pour the DRESSING on top of lettuce mixture.
• Mix well and enjoy. This is where you add the avocado if you are so inclined.
• Leftovers may be stored in airtight container in the fridge in order to create a congealed "taco salad mess" the next day. Not pretty but quite tasty.

POSITIVELY THE BEST TACO SALAD

Steps:

• Brown ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning - follow package directions. Alow to cool slightly or put in refrigerator if you don't want to use the salad right away.
• TEAR lettuce into bite size pieces, but into bowl. Cut tomatoes in half, and spread out on top of lettuce. Put cheese on top of tomatoes. Cover and chill until ready to serve. Just before serving, add Doritos, meat (if refrigerated, use microwave to take chill off of meat), and salad dressing. Toss well!
• Don't skimp on the cheese or doritos, the more the better! I use the whole bag of Dorito's. Not snack size, or Extra large, just the regular size bag -- .

VERY UNUSUAL TACO SALAD

Steps:

• Cook beef and drain fat.
• In a large bowl, combine ALL ingredients. Mix well.
• Serve with tortilla chips.
• Cover tightly and refridgerate leftovers no more than 2 days. Do NOT reheat. Mix well before serving cold.
