How to Make Rosemary S Taco Salad

  1. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add 1/2 cup water and 1 packet taco seasoning to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove the skillet from heat and let the beef cool completely for at least 10 minutes.
  4. While the beef cools, prepare your vegetables and cheese. Chop 1 cup of tomatoes, 1/2 cup red onion, 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed. Shred 1 cup cheddar cheese.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the cooled beef, chopped tomatoes, red onion, black beans, and cheddar cheese.
  6. Add your desired amount of crushed Doritos to the bowl.
  7. Drizzle generously with Catalina dressing and toss gently to combine.
  8. Serve immediately or assemble ahead of time by keeping the beef, veggies, and cheese in separate containers until ready to serve.
