Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef Can be substituted with ground turkey for a leaner option.
  • 1 head of lettuce, chopped
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend) Can be substituted with a dairy-free alternative.
  • 2 cups crushed Doritos
  • 1/2 cup taco seasoning
  • 1 cup dressing (ranch or taco dressing) Ranch adds creaminess, while taco dressing gives a kick.
Optional Toppings
  • avocado Sliced for garnish or mixing.
  • olives Sliced for added flavor.
  • jalapeños Chopped for heat.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat and add taco seasoning according to package instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, combine chopped lettuce, halved tomatoes, and cooked beef.
  3. Add shredded cheese and crushed Doritos.
  4. Drizzle with dressing and toss gently to combine.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with additional toppings if desired.

Notes

Best enjoyed fresh to maintain the crunch of the Doritos. Store leftovers in an airtight container, keeping the Doritos and dressing separate for best results.
