This is truely a wonderful salad! We will be making it again and again! I only used a 1 oz. package of taco seasoning and it was really, really good! Thank you!

This is similar to my sister's recipe, and hers is the BEST TACO SALAD in town, also. She is the salad queen, since she has burnt up many a kitchen. But, we add a small bottle of ortego taco sauce to the catalina, and pour over crushed nacho Doritos instead. I am sure either way is delicious, but try it with the taco sauce mixture, and doritos and see if you like it too. This truly is a better taco salad!
