one of my best friends back home introduced this to me. it's nothing unusual or unique, just a taco salad -- but it is so good and easy to make! there's no rhyme or reason to it either -- layer it in the order you like, add the toppings you like, etc.
you could even trade it in for a taco -- just buy some taco shells or tortillas... same idea. be creative.
taco salad
1 pound ground chuck
1 package grated cheese, mexican blend
1 package taco seasoning
corn chips
1 package european blend lettuce (can use any kind of lettuce)
1 small onion, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
1 can sliced black olives
salsa
guacamole
sour cream
Brown beef on stove top. Follow directions on package for Taco Seasoning and add to beef. You may add onions to beef, and cook until transparent. Crush chips on plate. Add a layer of lettuce, beef, cheese, tomatoes, salsa, onion (raw, optional), olives, guacamole and sour cream.
