Instructions
Saute ground meat, chopped onion in large skillet over medium heat, until meat is browned and onions are soft.
Add salt and beans and heat through. Remove meat mixture from pan and set aside.
In medium skillet, combine Sauce Ingredients (e.g., tomato sauce, salt, chili powder, chopped onion and tomatoes). Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Cool before proceeding.
In a large salad bowl, layer lettuce, crumbled tortilla chips, meat mixture, sauce, and grated cheese. Repeat. Garnish with tomato wedges, sliced olives, and whole tortilla chips.
Notes
Serve with our delicious Original Taco House Fiesta Dressing {CopyCat Recipe}!I like to use the Sauce layers to sort of "seal the salad," which I do by smoothing it down over the meat mixture with a spatula or the back of a large spoon. As in more traditional layered salads, this step seems to keep the lettuce crisper longer.
