Mexican Salad Aka Frito or Taco Salad image

My favorite taco salad recipe in the world. After my grandma passed I thought I had lost the recipe forever but found it in an old church congregation cookbook that was published in 1980 and it had her recipe in it! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover taco meat. I always have some in the freezer and it's so easy to throw together a salad with it.
