Random Recipe Exchange
It’s time once again for the Random Recipe Exchange. Stop on over at Pam’s blog if you want some more information about the fun Random Recipe Exchange.
This week we are sharing a Tex-Mex recipe. Now really, we hardly ever eat Tex-Mex food. And it’s not because we don’t like it, I just don’t have a lot of Tex-Mex recipes. So, I am really excited to see what the other participants share so I can get lots of new recipes to try.
Here’s my recipe:
Taco Salad
Ingredients:
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
- 1 (16 ounce) can chili beans
- 1 (16 ounce) bottle French dressing
- 1 head iceberg lettuce
- 1 (14.5 ounce) package tortilla chips
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 cup chopped tomatoes
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
- 1/2 cup prepared salsa
Directions:
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef and drain excess fat. Stir in the taco seasoning, chili beans and French-style dressing. Fill the dressing bottle 2/3 full of water and add to the skillet. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Crush the bag of chips, open the bag, and toss the broken chips into a large bowl with the lettuce, cheese and tomatoes. When the meat mixture is done, combine it with the lettuce, tomatoes, chips and mix well. Then, add salsa and sour cream.
Makes 6 servings

Oooh. That looks good. I wouldn’t have thought of putting in the French dressing.
