Cooking At Home: Taco Salad

Taco salad is one of those meals you just can't get wrong. It's not just that everyone loves it (at least in my house), but you literally can't get it wrong. You don’t need a recipe. You just need your favorite taco ingredients and a big plate. Key word here is "your." When it comes to taco salad, you're the boss, and no one can tell you otherwise.

When it comes to tacos, I'm not fussy about fillings. Fish, veggies, chicken, eggs, pork – you name it, I'll eat it. But when it comes to taco salad, I am all about the seasoned ground beef, and only iceberg lettuce will do. Plenty of people agree with me on this, I'm sure, but where I'll lose a few of you is with my choice of dressing.

I love our Fresh Mexi-Ranch Salad Dressing, but my all-time fave is French. My mom called it Catalina, some call it Western – they're a little different, but also a lot the same. If you've never tried this particular dressing on your taco salad, I highly recommend it. I've said it before and will never stop saying it: food is all about balance. Spicy meat, onions and peppers are heaven when balanced with a sweet and tangy sauce. But you do you. There are no rules (and no recipe) when it comes to this one. Enjoy!

Warmly,
Rachael

P.S. Combine the best of both worlds when you visit the Burrito Bar and Salad Bar. Taco Tuesday just became Tacos Anyday!
