Taco Salad image

Since the early 1970's Taco Salad has made an appearance at all of my husband's family summer gatherings. It wouldn't be a Gardner family without it. When we have a Mexican theme for our tailgate this is the most requested dish for me to bring.

I would not recommend this recipe. The salad was very bland and the dressing was too sour.

This salad is just okay. The dressing is a bit bland and the ingredients are not very flavorful.
