[net.cooks] Request for Taco salad recipe

brown@utflis.UUCP (Susan Brown) (09/06/85)

 I was recently vacationing in San Diego and had what I thought was
 a yummy taco salad in, of all places, Bob's Big Boy. (A local friend
 dragged me in.)  I thought such a salad would make a big impression
 at picnics back here in Canada, eh?  When it's not snowing.  Any
 good recipes out there?
 Thanks.

Easy to make!  Its just a taco without the shell.

	Build some taco meat (ground beef and one of those packets of
	spices for making tacos that seem to be everywhere.  Lawry's is
	good.)  Just cook it and let it cool a bit.

	Tear up some lettuce.  Put the lettuce into a bowl, dribble some
	good salsa (you CAN get good salsa in the store in plastic
	bottles) all over it, scatter the meat on top, then shred some
	sharp cheddar cheese on top so that its nearly covered.

	Add dollops of sour cream and a few sliced black olives.

	You can add chunks of cut-up tomato if you like.  I think you should.

	Yum!

I'm not surprised.  I have been going to Bob's for many years and I find
most of the meals are good and inexpensive too.  When you go back, be
sure to try their strawberry pie (yum!).
