Have been making this taco salad since I as a pre-teen. No longer use nacho flavored chips though. I use plain instead. We mix each serving in a bowl and add the Catalina. Another way to try it is with no dressing but salsa instead. Don’t forget the onions though. This is stuff is great.

jamie – you can absolutely use French dressing too. It tastes a little different than Catalina (but not a whole lot to truly make a difference).

My pastor’s wife does something similar with French dressing (is that the same as Catalina?) and it’s to die for!

I can attest to the deliciousness of this taco salad. My own mother had this recipe and I in turn have been making it for years. It is so easy to throw together on a weeknight for a simple meal and it’s equally good hot or cold. My family layers the ingredients in a bowl and them tosses it with the dressing when served. Also, we’ve always used creamy french dressing, it’s the best!

I’m going to have to try and put this together sometime this week! It looks so good! Even though I’d have to cut it down to feed one person
