Ingredients

  • 1 head iceberg lettuce chopped
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 14 ounces red kidney beans drained
  • 16 ounces Pace Picante Salsa
  • 2 tomatoes chopped
  • 2 cups grated cheese
  • 1 small package Doritos nacho chips, broken

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 5 tablespoons sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces Catalina salad dressing

Instructions

  • Brown onion and ground beef and drain. Add kidney beans and set aside to cool. In a separate bowl, mix salsa and mayonnaise, salt and pepper and set aside. Place chopped lettuce in a large bowl. 
  • Add chopped tomatoes, cheese, and beef mixture. Top with chips. Pour salsa mixture over top and mix well. After serving, place a small amount of Catalina Dressing on top and mix well.

Notes

I usually make my dressing while the onion and beef are cooking and set it aside. I do not add the Catalina Dressing to my other dressing as not everyone likes it. Also, do not add the chips until ready to serve.
