Love your site and your recipes. Several of your recipes remind me of dishes I've had over the years, one being this taco salad. My family always got together in the summer at our place at the lake and you know everyone has their signature dishes and my cousin always brought this one and she always used fritos instead of tortilla chips. Keep your great recipes coming!!!!

I was looking at some of your recipes the other day, and I found this one. I haven't made taco salad in a long time, but it is a good summertime dinner. I make mine pretty much the same way you do, except we don't like tomatoes so I don't add those. I have used Catalina dressing on ours for a long time. Ranch dressing is really good, too. Thanks for all the recipes. You have some good ones on here. I also just wanted to let you know my family and I are headed to Savannah on Sunday for a few days. I don't know if we will go to Paula Deen's restaurant or not, but I thought about you since I knew you were a big fan.

Your taco salad is alot like one of my families favorites. I use same ingred. as you, but mix salsa with the French dressing in a container so everyone can pour on amount wanted, and do not add the chips to the bowl. I crush the chips then everyone puts the amount they want on the plate first then top with the salad. This is a great meal for summer but my family loves it through out the year. So for the cooler weather I heat the beans and mix while the burger mixture is still warm. During cool months any leftovers gets heated in microwave next day. My kids beg for this regularly.
I really love your site and all the wonderful food options you're giving us. I'm really loving trying all your new recipes. Keep up the great job!!

Just an FYI.. I, like you, LOVE Paula Deen!! Anyway she has a recipe very similar to this one of your sister's, if you try to look it up I think its under Mexican Salad. She used the catalina dressing also, which is what caught my eye. Never thought of that!! Anyway just wanted to share this with ya! Nice website by the way!! I have been meaning to try making the Peach Preserves-wish me luck!!

This is very similar to one that I recently tried. I didn't add black beans though and I used salsa. But the french dressing makes it amazing!!
