Layered Taco Salad (T&T)
Posted by LuAnn at Recipes To Go
Source: Original recipe by LuAnn
I sent this salad with DH to a potluck for the IV Team nurses at the hospital where he is employed. DH said the other nurses RAVED about it - even going so far as to say it was "the best Taco Salad they'd ever eaten," and finished it to the last bean! LOL It must've made an impression, because several days later I received a handwritten thank you note, signed by the other nurses on the IV team! Very considerate!
In a pretty, clear glass dish with deep, straight sides, layer the following:
4 - 6 cups Romaine lettuce, torn in small, bite-size pieces, tossed together with 1/4 cup fresh minced cilantro
1 (15-ounce) can kidney (or pinto or black) beans, rinsed and well drained
1 (15-ounce) can whole kernel corn, well drained
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
Spread the following dressing over the top:
1 cup light Ranch dressing
1 cup light sour cream
1 tablespoon minced pickled jalapenos
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon Emeril's Southwest seasoning
Enough liquid off the pickled jalapenos to season as desired
Garnish Salad by layering the remaining ingredients over the dressing:
1 (8-ounce) package shredded Mexican blend cheese
1 tomato, chopped
1/2 cup sliced black olives
Chill thoroughly. Just before serving, top with:
1 small package corn tortilla chips, coarsely broken. (I used about half of a 16-ounce package).
