Directions
Kittencal’s Taco Salad for a Crowd, I have made this many times to serve at get togethers and I always receive rave reviews from everyone! if desired the amounts may reduced to half — to save some time the beef may be cooked a day ahead, and refrigerated overnight as it must be cooled completely before adding the ingredients in with it, you may want to purchase two bags of nacho chips and use one to serve on the side — when cooking the ground beef, I always try to leave it into larger size chunks, it looks better in the salad, really you may use any size bag of nachos that you like, the 12 cups size is only estimated, you can add any amount desired in with the ground beef/salad mixture, just make sure to add them just before serving as they tend to get soggy — see my recipe#76616 — I sometimes add in a can of drained and rinsed black beans :), This salad is delicious! I paired it down to serve 4 Thank goodness for the magical serving size button I added a can of refried beans and a can of green chilies to the meat mixture to give it a little more flavor Ill be making this one often , This salad was gone in minutes! I have really only made taco salad with a salsa dressing, so the french dressing was a nice change, we really liked the flavor combos!
