World Famous Taco Salad

I call this World Famous Taco Salad because it is so damn good and I think everyone needs to try it at least once. Everyone that I have made it for, love it.

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef or turkey
1 taco seasoning packet
Ice Berg Lettuce - Chopped
Tomatoes - Chopped
1 Can Kidney Beans - Drained
2 or 3 cups of Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 Bag Yellow or White Corn Tortilla Chips - crushed(open bag so it doesn't explode and squeeze until it's in little pieces)
1 Bottle of Wish Bone Thousand Island Dressing (trust me on this one!)

Directions:
Brown meat and drain fat. Add Taco Seasoning Packet according to directions on packet.(I use a little less water than the packet calls for. You don't want it runny)
In a large bowl add:
Chopped Lettuce, Tomatoes, Kidney Beans, Chips, Meat, and Cheese. Pour Thousand Island Dressing on top and toss to mix it all together and Enjoy!

Verdict:
We love this recipe and eat it often. It makes a lot so you might want to mix half and save the rest for later. We eat it warm, but it is also good as left overs. Just remember if you mix it all up, the chips won't be as crunchy the next day and the lettuce won't be as fresh. Let me know what you think!
