Dorito Taco Salad (my Mom’s Favorite Lunch Order — Made at H

Ingredients

1 large bag Doritos (Nacho Cheese flavor), lightly crushed

1 pound lean ground beef

1 packet taco seasoning mix

1 red onion, diced

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 head of lettuce, finely shredded

6 ripe tomatoes, chopped

½ cup Italian dressing

2 cups ranch dressing

HOW TO MAKE DORITO TACO SALAD

Directions

Cook the Beef

In a skillet, crumble and brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain the excess fat once fully cooked.

Season the Meat

Add the taco seasoning, Italian dressing, and ranch dressing to the skillet. Stir well and simmer until the liquid is absorbed into the meat.

Prepare the Toppings

Shred the lettuce, chop the tomatoes, and dice the red onion. Place each in separate bowls. Add shredded cheese to another bowl.

Assemble the Salad

You can either let everyone build their own salad using the separate toppings — or mix everything together (including the crushed Doritos) into one large bowl with the warm beef for a bold, family-style version.

Tip: Keeping ingredients separate allows for leftovers to be stored more easily — and lets everyone customize their plate.

It’s crunchy, creamy, full of flavor, and completely addictive. Perfect for summer gatherings, potlucks, or a fun family dinner. For more nostalgic and crave-worthy recipes, follow deesviral.
