Note: The las time I made this I did it very unconventionly, I had some of my "Bloody Mary Chili" leftover, so I heated it in the microwave , just enough to make it fluid, then strained it(I saved the juice to put in my meat loaf); and use the meat and veggies, added a diced tomato, the dressing and the Dorito's and I was done!

I didn't like this taco salad at all. The dressing was too bland and the salad was too dry.
