Reception Recipes – Taco Salad, and Chinese Noodle Slaw
This taco salad recipe is the best! Every, and I mean every time I take it to a party someone asks for the recipe. Be sure and use iceberg lettuce, the others just get soggy. And, it’s best to put it together at the last minute. The secret ingredients are the Nally Hot Chili and the Light Catalina dressing. Enjoy!

Taco Salad
1 lb. hamburger
1 green bell pepper chopped
½ large onion chopped
1 can Nalley Hot Chili
I 16 oz. bottle of Kaft Light Catalina dressing
1 head iceberg lettuce
1-2 tomatoes chopped
Grated cheese (add what you like)
1 small bag taco chips (crushed)
Brown: hamburger, bell pepper and onion. Drain grease, then add the can of Nalley Hot Chili. Heat mixture and then set aside to cool.
In a large bowel add: 1 head iceberg lettuce chopped, 1-2 tomatoes chopped, grated cheese (add what you like). When ready to serve, add the hamburger mix to the lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. Add crushed taco chips and from ¾ to the full bottle of Catalina dressing. Stir and enjoy. This makes a big salad. It does not keep well, so it should be eaten the same day as prepared.
