Ingredients

1 large bunch romaine lettuce rinsed and chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
3 tablespoons taco seasoning about 1 oz
1/2 cup black beans drained and rinsed, can add more if desired
3 roma tomatoes chopped
1 cup cheddar cheese grated
3 cups Cool Ranch Doritos broken into bite size chunks
1 cup Catalina dressing

Instructions

In a skillet over medium heat add the ground beef, cook breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon until cooked through. Drain grease, and discard.
Add the taco seasoning and 3/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 5 minutes or until most of the water is absorbed or has evaporated. Remove from heat and cool until room temperature.
In a large bowl add the lettuce, tomatoes, black beans, cheese, Doritos, and taco meat. Pour dressing overtop and toss to coat. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

We usually use Cool Ranch Doritos for this salad, however you can experiment with any Doritos flavor.

This salad is to be served cold.

Store the ingredients separately if you expect leftovers. Only toss what you will eat day of.
