Dorito Taco Salad

Dorito Taco Salad (Page 4 ) | September 18, 2023

I’ve seen many variations of this salad over the years. Heck, I’ve seen people use ranch dressing and Cool Ranch Doritos.? If you’re not a ground beef fan, you can also substitute chicken or turkey. Go ahead and shake things up a bit with some of these additions:

Black beans
Pinto beans
Kidney beans
Yellow, red or green peppers
Corn kernels
Jalapeños

CAN I MAKE TACO SALAD AHEAD OF TIME?
The short answer is, “yes,” but there’s a bit of a trick to making this salad ahead of time. You need to assemble it in layers.

You’ll start with the seasoned ground beef as the bottom layer.
Next come the black olives.
Then, add the tomatoes.
Add the lettuce and onions.
Finish with the cheese.
The dressing and the Doritos you’ll want to mix in just before serving or everything will get way too soggy.
