Oh my, this was so good! I loved the ranch beans with the taco-seasoned meat combo. The French dressing worked surprisingly well here. I served this salad over Doritos since I love them but hardly ever buy them (I would eat an entire bag by myself). This makes a lot! I might halve the recipe next time for the three of us. Thank you!

Yummers! Everyone in my house loves taco salad so I knew that this would be a hit. I made homemade French dressing, tortilla bowls, and set out lots of optional toppings so that we could all 'build our own' salad. My DD and SIL both had 2 helpings and my DD dibbed leftovers for today. lol. This was a huge hit. Thanks for sharing a winner recipe that we'll make often.

Excellent taco salad! I buzzed up the veggies in a food processor to make a salsa so my kids would eat them (won’t eat the stuff separate but put it together and call it salsa and they devour it) and I let everyone make their own instead of mixing it all together (again, picky kids). Very much enjoyed this taco salad!

My family loves taco salad and this version made my husband very happy! I swapped out black olives for the peppers - thought I had some, but no. I put it together with the warm taco meat/bean mixture. We like it when the cheese melts a bit on the meat. Served with medium salsa.
