Doritos Taco Salad
Made with browned & seasoned ground beef, black beans, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, and crushed Doritos. All topped with your favorite taco sauce and sour cream.
Ingredients
Taco Beef
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning I love a cheesy taco variety
- ½ cup broth
Salad
- 1 romaine heart chopped
- 1 can black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 cup pico de gallo
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 handfuls crushed Doritos
Toppings
- ¼ cup taco sauce Taco Bell's Creamy Chipotle or Avocado Ranch are my fave
- Sour cream to taste
Instructions
- In a large frying pan over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked.
- Drain most of the fat, then stir in taco seasoning and broth.
- Simmer for 2–3 minutes until saucy but not wet. Remove from heat and let cool 5–10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled beef, romaine, black beans, pico, cheddar cheese, and crushed Doritos.
- Plate and top with taco sauce and sour cream. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Don't add Doritos until ready to serve! This keeps the Doritos from getting soggy before you've had a chance to dig in.
- If your pico is very saucy or wet, use a slotted spoon to add it to the salad.
- If meal prepping, mix all of salad ingredients except for Doritos and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Add crushed Doritos when ready to serve.
