How to Make Marmie's Taco Salad
- Brown 1 lb ground beef in a medium-high heat skillet until lightly browned.
- Add 1 packet (approx. 1 oz) taco seasoning to the beef; cook until nicely browned.
- Stir in 1/4 cup water and simmer until the liquid is reduced.
- Remove the beef from the heat and let it cool completely.
- While the beef cools, prepare the dressing: Combine all dressing ingredients (see recipe below) in a tightly sealed jar. Shake well and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Layer the following ingredients in a large bowl: 1 (15-ounce) can drained and rinsed beans (kidney, black, or pinto), 1/2 cup diced red onion, 1 cup diced tomatoes, 2 cups chopped lettuce, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and the cooled ground beef.
- Crush 1 cup tortilla chips and sprinkle them over the layered ingredients.
- Just before serving, pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
- Serve immediately with extra tortilla chips. For potlucks, pack ingredients separately in zip-top bags to prevent sogginess.
