Isn't it such a wonderful, colorful meal! Taco Salad--Its it wonderful! So hodgepodge and so easy!
you need:
Chips
cheese
ground beef and taco packet, prepared according to directions
lettuce
other veggies: corn, beans, etc. anything you want to make a salad.
sour cream is also great but we didn't have any.
taco sauce and salsa (see recipes below)
Make your salad, add the taco meat, cheese etc. on top!
Salsa:
you need:
5 tomatoes
corn
pepper
1/4 of an onion
2 cloves garlic
4 torn up leaves of basil
2 Tbsp of lemon juice
I would recommend cilantro too but I didn't have any.
Also add some jalapeno if you like it hot
I diced up the tomatoes and heated them up on the stove. I added just a titch of water.
Add in some onion, corn, pepper, garlic, basil, lemon juice etc. Heat until the tomato is softer.
If you wanted it really fresh don't heat it, but the warm salsa tasted really good on top of the salad.
Taco sauce (or Will also uses it for BBQ sauce):
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup vinegar
2 Tbsp chopped onions (optional)
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp mustard
Heat all ingredients to boiling over medium heat. Stirring constantly, reduce heat. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally for about 15 minutes.
Will's family uses this for a bbq sauce too!
