Doritos Taco Salad

In small bowl, whisk ranch dressing, salsa, mayonnaise and adobo sauce. Cover and refrigerate.

In large skillet, brown ground beef and drain excess grease. Add taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5–7 minutes. Let beef cool 10–15 minutes before adding it to the salad.

In large serving bowl, add iceberg lettuce. Top with green pepper, black olives, tomato, corn, black beans, cheddar jack cheese and seasoned cooked beef. Right before serving, add crushed Doritos and dressing. Toss to coat.

Notes:
• I get my adobo sauce from a can of chipotle peppers packed in adobo sauce. I save the leftover peppers and sauce for other recipes. They should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be found in the hispanic food section of your grocery.
• You can substitute 1 to 2 pinches of cayenne for the adobo sauce.
