Taco Salad
Taco Salad
Ingrediënten
- 1 pound hamburger
- Shredded cheese cheddar, colby-jack, etc.
- ½ envelope taco seasoning
- 1 medium head lettuce
- 1 cup salsa
- tortilla corn chips
Instructies
- Brown and drain hamburger.
- Mix in ½ envelope dry taco seasoning, then add about 1 cup salsa.
- Allow mixture to cool.
- Shred or cut lettuce into bite-size pieces.
- Crush chips into smaller pieces, reserving enough “perfect” chips to arrange around the edge of your bowl.
- Mix meat mixture, lettuce, and cheese close to serving time.
- The amount of cheese used can vary according to your taste.
- I reserve 1/3 to ½ cup of the cheese to garnish the top of the salad.
- Just before serving, mix in crushed chips.
- Tuck the perfect chips in around the edge of the bowl and sprinkle top with cheese.
Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
You may choose to add other favorite taco ingredients such as olives. (I don’t like olives.) The cheese should not be finely shredded for best results. This dish is best served and eaten all in one sitting as the chips will get soggy and the lettuce may wilt slightly. If you won’t be able to eat it all at once, only mix together as much as you can eat. If taking salad away from home, mix lettuce and chips in once you get to your destination, if possible.
