I think you two need to get busy and make a cookbook of all these wonderful recipes! 😊😋
I grew up eating this salad. The only thing different that my mom would add, is avocado. One of my favorite salads.
Love avocado! That's a wonderful addition. Thanks for watching our video. We really do appreciate it.
Funny you say that; I was just thinking that topping it off with some sliced avocado would be good too.
Add chopped olives, too! Yummy 😊
Or pickled jalapeños…
That would be tasty in it.@@eileen8433
Here in Texas we mix 1 cup Hot salsa and 1 cup ranch dressing and most people call it southwest dressing. It’s really good on that salad and often people replace the hamburger with little chunks of taco seasoned chicken. And most people add roasted corn cut from the cob into the salad. If you don’t have a way to roast corn every time you want to use it in a dish you can empty a can of corn into a frying pan with a couple of spoons of butter and let it simmer until it simmers completely dry. And then stir it once it gets dry until it gets a little brown around the edges and it’ll kind of dry roast like it does on a grill and get that roasted corn flavor. It won’t have a charcoal flavor but the butter really makes it taste like it’s grilled to me.
Now that's a nice little way around getting the BBQ corn without the BBQ. Thanks for sharing that with all of us! It's great to have you watching from Texas! We really appreciate it!

Oh some whole kernal corn would go great in this!! And salsa for sure instead of catalina, which would be good too
@@debdavis7382we have a local American Mexican restaurant that serves salsa and a thin tomato base thousand island sauce on the side. I, and so does everyone else, loves that thin 1,000 island to dip everything in or pour on everything! This salad sounds delicious and I’d try some 1,000 Island dressing just to see if I liked it? Thanks for sharing!
😢I put in this order so I can store in fridge and nothing gets soggy….. first the cooled meat, beans, onion, tomato, cheese, and lettuce on top to stay crisp….then store in fridge until ready to eat. Mix the ingredients in the bowl… let everyone serve themselves and add however much crunched Doritos and dressing to taste. Or if your taking to a party or potluck supper Add the Doritos and dressing when you get to your venue. Been doin this for 40+ years and it works great.
So smart Gretchen All of us are not able to make big salads and sometimes it's hard to halve things
I Love your taco salad! I put mayonnaise . Have a wonderful BLESSED day. Say hi to menfis❤😂
California
Subscribed from Canada, have to try some of your recipes.😊
Love this idea!
That looks good! I bet adding avocado and black olives would make it so good too! I myself would add spring onion instead of regular onion. Going to make this soon! :)
I almost always serve this with sliced avocado on the side for those who like avocado,
I agree to all 3 . We do that on top of chili too. We call it haystacks.
Nothing better than a man who can cook!! Especially good old soothing comfort food. Please keep those great videos coming.😊
That aluminum foil trick in the drain to drain the fat into was Way Cool. Thanks for the tip.
I like to make my own taco seasoning so I can control exactly what goes into it, with no additives I cant even pronounce. It's easy and cost effective. 3 tablespoons will equal about 1 of those packets: 1.5 cups chili powder, 2 tablespoons ground cumin, 1/4 cup kosher salt, 1 tablespoons onion powder, 2 tablespoons garlic powder.
That's a lot of chilli pep😅per.
@@marionjones9807it’s chili powder not pepper
THANK YOU.
@@marionjones9807 it's for my taste. With a recipe you can do your own thing. When you stupidly buy one of those little packets you have no control of the ingredients.
IN MY VIEW/ Homemade Taco Seasoning earned its own spice seasoning bottle. (I never buy packaged anymore)
Love that you are bringing back all these old recipes. Tried and true.
Just put some sour cream in you bowl and or guac!
I wish you would do a cookbook of your recipes. I copy them from the drop down box but would so much like to have a cookbook of them..😊😊😊
I copy and paste the recipes into an email to myself! I have quite a large folder in my email titled 'Recipes'. It makes it easy to find a certain one or just run down the list for meal ideas. You could also copy and paste in Word program.
That taco salad looks delicious. Until you put the meat in it. I have been a vegetarian since 1960. I plan to make that salad the next pot luck I go to and leave the meat out.
I love your program and watch it every day. Justine from Missouri
Great tip on draining the burger grease. It's faster (and easier) than spooning the grease out. Two things I'd do differently, add sour cream and don't crush your chips into the salad... use whole chips as scoops and save time washing utensils! Plus, any left over salad won't have soggy chips the next day. Chuck
An even easier and cleaner way to extract grease from the meat is to mop it out of the pan with a paper towel or two. Just toss it into the trash when saturated. No greasy strainer to clean up afterwards. Save your foil for other uses.
@@MultiLadybug72 Thats how I get the grease out
I love this taco salad. I've been making it for 25 years. I add red onions instead of regular onions.
I'd love it with either type onion. But then again, I am a real fan of onions. Thank you so much for watching. We really appreciate it.
I slice green onions and add to the mix with the cheese, Doritos, and Green Goddess dressing.
I’ve made this salad for years. I do put avocado in it on the side. And my recipe has me make the dressing. It’s phenomenal. You take one can of tomato soup, 1/2 cup of vinegar, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup of sugar, one tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce and tablespoon of chopped onion. Put it all in the blender and blend it up. My husband can’t enough of that dressing. In fact I usually double the recipe. Also sliced olives taste good in it.
Love your ideas! We appreciate that cooking allows for such versatility!
Can we just talk about the great camera work that Melissa always does. I would absolutely love to have a RUclips cooking channel but I'm way too camera shy. And also...YUM!! This recipe will be made for dinner tonight. Thank you so much for sharing.
I’ve made this salad for many years except I never use packaged seasonings. My spice cabinet is fully stocked with everything I need minus the preservatives. Thank you for sharing!
You do you!
Been making this salad since my cousin made it for me and shared the recipe back in the early '80's. It was my introduction to Catalina salad dressing. Only difference, we layered the ingredients in the individual bowls and let each person mix it (or not) as it was eaten...keeping the lettuce and chips crispy longer (and in my opinion, not that it makes a hill of beans... a better visual presentation). We also used Fritos on occasion...This salad is definitely yummy!
Looks yummy, I made this 😮with fritos a long time ago .
@@delg9126haha I just went in and edited my comment to include saying that on occasion we would use Fritos vs. Doritos
We used Fritos back then ,I first got the recipe in 1975
I always serve it buffet-style and let everyone select the items they want in the order they desire. It also prevents items from getting soggy. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing another great recipe. Melissa does a great job with the camera and I appreciate that she types the recipe in the box below the video. Thank you both.
This is one of our favorite salads. We have people on multiple diets in this house. Low carb. Lactose intolerant. Kidney diet. I prepare this salad with hamburger, low sodoum taco seasoning, lettuce, tomato, onion. And pinto beans, drained and rinsed. I serve the doritoes, cheese, and dressing separately so people can use a smaller portion if need be. Also, this way leftover salad can be stored in the fridge without getting the chips and lettuce soggy. Of course it will not last long. Thank you for this recipe. I knew I could make it for everyone with different diets, but I forgot some of the ingredients.
Thank you so much Tom and Melissa-your cooking brightens my day! Good tip on saving grease.
It’s been years since I’ve made taco salad. My recipe is very similar to yours, I never thought to seed the tomatoes! Mine was always juicy, but I am going to make this recipe. AND I love your way of draining the grease off the hamburger…..great idea! Thanks for another dinner idea. After 57 years of marriage I need some fresh dinner offerings! 👍🥬🍅🧅🌮
I love Taco salad but this one is different and I’m gonna give it a try ! Thanks for always including the recipes to each food items your cooking ! I appreciate it very much!! God bless ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈
Awwww…. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU TOM!!! I’m so excited you are making this taco salad! My sister made it , she passed away a yr., & 7 months ago, & I didn’t get to ever ask her how she made it! 😩. But now! God bless you & Melissa for doing this & sharing with us!! I now have the means to make it , step to step! It’s exactly how she made it! I remember her telling me. I just never got to write it down. It’s like my sister is giving me that blessing of having it after all! (Through y’all! ). How great is our God, & how he works in his own special ways!! I love you two! You’re such a neat couple who compliment each other as a team. Yayyy!!! I now will make this for my family & church family! It’s SOOOO YUMMY! Easy as well! I’m thankful I looked at you tube real quick & saw y’all making this! 👏👏👏👍❤️🙏. Keep ‘em coming ! Y’all are unique, & inviting to watch! 😁. Deb from Centerville, Indiana.
This is a blast from my past. Very similar to what I made. I learned how to make it from a cousin and I was in Heaven! Thanks for bringing this up. ~Sharon from Florida
I have made it like this since late 70s. It was in a Woman's Day magazine in an ad for Catalina dressing.
You are amazing! You and Melissa are truly a phenomenal team. Your recipes are absolutely delicious!!!!!! Love you both!!!!!
Thank you for those sweet, kind words. You are so encouraging. We really appreciate you watching our videos.
@comesitatmytable9044 I loved you guys..lol you can tell from up north! From the first video. You and Melissa seem like very good and genuine people. Your recipes always look tasty!
In the employee cafeteria where I once worked, they had someone with all the ingredients mixed up the salad right there as you watched. It was a little bit different than yours. There were no beans in it, they used tortilla chips instead of Doritos, and ranch dressing. So, I began making that at home. I use green onions. It is awesome.
Beautiful salad!
I’ll be adding this to my meal plan for next week!

Thank you for your service❣️
We appreciate your service! Thank you also for watching our video.
I love your channel and have made many of your recipes. We had this incredible crunchy taco salad for supper. So delicious. We are looking forward to having it again. Thanks for the recipe.
I had completely forgotten this recipe!! You are absolutely right! The Doritos and Catalina are perfect additions!! Such a great salad for this Texas sweltering heat!! LOVE your recipes! We entertained a group of friends last night, and every dish was from a recipe you had shared!! They were blown away with the Harry & David’s relish on the meatloaf, Southern green beans, pineapple rice, and your delight chocolate cake!!
No Sour Cream? Tom your missing out on the best ingredient
@@michaelreid8857 I agree! Haven't made this before, and was reading the list of ingredients and everything was looking good ... until I hit Catalina Dressing! I would probably use sour cream and salsa or taco sauce.
@@teapartygeezer8658 i think the dressing would work. I would be tempted to do a 50/50 dressing and Salsa!
@@michaelreid8857 Sounds good. One way or another, I'm going to try it. (In regular salad, not taco salad, I've mixed 1,000 Island with hot taco sauce! Good!)
This was a favorite of my kids when they were growing up. Only I didn't mix it all together, just put everything into separate dishes and let them make their own "salad' the way they wanted it. Plus, sometimes we would use Fritos instead of Doritos, or have both sit out and let them choose which one they wanted.
When making this salad, we like to fry half of the onion with the meat. It brings out the sweetness of the onion and it's a nice contrast with the raw onion on the salad. Also, if you find your onion is really strong, cooking it with the meat tones it down quite a bit.
Oh my, this brought back some yummy memories. I used to make this for a dish to pass at gatherings! Always a hit!!!!
Always threw the left overs from taco night into a bowl and made the salad for the next night with the crunched up nacho cheese doritos. Yum. Thank you for all your recipes. They are definitely worth trying.
Oh My Gosh!!!! My Mother gave me this recipe years ago. It's delicious. She also added green peppers diced. I live in West Virginia also.
Thank you for all the yummy recipes! I love your calming Southern drawl. Sometimes your videos make me sleepy, your voice soothes me so much! Thanks, Melissa, for writing out the recipes. Sending hugs from Beth in Savannah, GA.🤗💜
I hit “like” before I even watch your videos. Never seen anything you’ll posted that I didn’t like.
O my goodness, I made this Crunchy Taco Salad today and it is the best taco salad I have ever eaten. When my husband went back for seconds I knew I had a winner. Thank you so much for sharing this and thanks to Ginger for sharing with you. We loved it.❤❤ Thanks to you and Melissa and God bless.
I just love y’all’s channel! You’re so relatable and the recipes are wonderful. It’s been a joy to watch your channel explode with subscribers over a relatively quick time period! I hope you continue to be blessed with success. ❤️
P.S. This recipe has been a staple in our family for years!
I remember making this 37 years ago from high school home economics class. we don't use Catalina Dressing, we just use taco sauce and dollup of sour cream. yummy.
I'm with you on the dressing issue. I just use salsa and sour cream. We always left everything in individual bowls and let every one build their own salad. Kids love doing that! (Oh, and we subbed the kidney beans with refried beans,)
Love taco salad! This looks great and thank you foe sharing the bonus tip about the foil in the drain! Genius!
Hello Tom and Melissa! Thank you Ginger for sharing this recipe that Tom made so eloquently. Thank you Melissa for posting this recipe. We really appreciate it. This was a hit this evening. I made this recipe to the T. One of our friends also used a dollop of sour cream and so, of course, I had to try that too. It was delicious. Unfortunately, we have no leftovers. It fed 8 people. Now they want me to make it again for tomorrow! 😄😄😋😋🥰🥰 Have a wonderful and safe Labor Day! Also, that aluminum foil trick in the sink is just brilliant. Love it! 👍🏻
Like Western dressing too.
Yummy salad.
Taco salad is so tasty. Thanks for sharing your version
I fix this salad a lot, however I put the tomato, onion, separate so if others don’t want to add tomato they don’t have to. I even put the cheese in a separate bowl and let each person add what they want. I also leave meat in the skillet. That way you don’t mix up a huge salad and have a lot left over. Then I store everything separate.
Takes me back to the 1980s..."Taco Salad Day" stopped business. Everyone brought items and we had a huge bowl to make it...everyone knew and the place closed down for the duration. We used Catalina dressing and Fritos though, you might want to try it. ❤
I use ranch dressing, a jar of salsa, and plain tortilla chips. I love taco salad. Have making this for about 40 years. I live in CA, so I add avocado most of the time if I have it.
I am so excited about this recipe. My son who is 51 yrs old loves anything with the name taco in it. He lives alone and I like to fix things he loves when he visits. I told him about this one so Im getting a visit for dinner and he is looking forward to this meal. Thank you for this recipe. I will fix a bowl for him to take home. Cant wait to try it. Thabks again. Yummm
Delicious salad and so simple to make. Thanks for sharing!😊
I'm always impressed with your organizational skills. Your recipes are so easy to follow and fun to watch you make. Other RUclips cooking channels should follow your example. Thank you for the aluminum foil in the sink tip! Brilliant. Why didn't I think of that?
Another idea.....An even easier and cleaner way to extract grease from the meat is to mop it out of the pan with a paper towel or two. Just toss it into the trash when saturated. No greasy strainer to clean up afterwards. Save your foil for other uses.
I KNEW IT...WEST VIRGINIA ROOTS...I LOVE YOU❤.MY GRANDMA AND GRANDPA WERE FROM WEST VIRGINIA...I SPENT MY SHORT 19 YEARS I HAD WITH HER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE BEFORE SHE PASSED AWAY😢...SHE MADE EVERYTHING FROM SCRATCH...EVERYTHING...HAD THEIR OWN GARDEN...CANNED EVERYTHING 😊 BEST YEARS OUT OF MY 61 YEARS🥰 YOU HAVE AN ABSOLUTE BEAUTIFUL CHANNEL 😊...YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL WIFE❤
I love watching your channel. You and Melissa always make me smile. French training…..too funny! Taco salad will be the next recipe I try. Loved your idea about draining the grease.
I have made this salad for 43 years and it is always a favorite. However, I don't use beans or onions but I do use black olives. I agree with you about liking it better when its fresh, I don't like soggy doritos. I have started leaving the crushed up doritos out of the mix and put them in a bowl on the side so you can add what you want and they are always crunchy! This has been my families favorite taco salad! Great to see you do it!
That looks delicious! I loved that you showed how you drained the hamburger meat. Great tip!

@@MultiLadybug72
That doesn't seem easier by any means. Besides that's a lot of grease to be sopping up w/paper towels. Also, the point is to drain the meat.
I made this today for dinner. Absolutely loved it. I never would have thought of using Catalina dressing on a taco salad. I usually don't buy it. Great choice, loved this recipe.
We are so happy to read that you made it and enjoyed it. Thanks for letting us know!
I also enjoy leftover Taco Salad. Thank you for sharing. 🎉
Delicious! I make mine and add the doritos, cheese, and dressing as i use the salad. I'm not fond of soggy salad. Thanks for posting. Yummy
I love this recipe!! I’ve been making it since the 80’s and it’s my favorite.
We love this salad. Make it all the time.
Nothing to not like about this recipe! Love the crunch of Doritos!
Yummy!!
I love Taco salad and this looks so good. Thanks for sharing.
Looks delicious
We think it's delightful! Thanks so much for watching. We hope you enjoy it soon.
Yum, i love Taco's. I've never made them in a bowl. I'm going to try this recipe for our next church pot luck dinner. Thanks! God bless you and your family ❤
I was just thinking the exact thing: perfect for our next fellowship lunch!!
Wow! I had forgotten about this one. I’m so glad you shared it. I haven’t made this in decades.
I love watching your videos. You make me feel like I’m a friend, just sitting in your kitchen with you. Keep up the good work!
God bless you, both. ❤😊
Looks fantastic! I love taco salad. Thank you.
This is a salad that an aunt would make for family gatherings….the only difference is that she would put in black olives. She recently passed away, but when I watched this, it mad me smile thinking of her.
This comes at a great time. I’ve been thinking of making a Taco Salad for the last few days.
I also was going to request that you guys share some more main courses with us.
How about a Salisbury (Hamburger) Steak. Chicken fried steak, baked Chicken, Pork Chops?? 🙏🙏🙏
That looks absolutely delicious . Thanks for
sharing..❤
A friend gave me this recipe in the 90’s and I always think of her when I make it. Something else this reminds me of is a meal a local fraternal organization would put on that we would frequent at lunch from work. They called it “tacos” but what they would do is ask how many tacos you want. You tell them and they would take that many taco shells and break them up on a plate. You would then tell them what toppings you wanted, hamburger, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese. They then would top all that with taco sauce or salsa. Hot, med or mild. It was delicious. Thanks so much for your videos!
Yummito bandito!!! That looks so good Tom and Melissa!! When you held that forkful of goodness up to the screen I automatically opened my mouth!! 😄 OH my goodness! Thanks so much for sharing!!
When I make my taco salad I throw my diced onions in the hot pan after I have my meat drained and while I am stirring in the taco seasoning then I add my onions in the pan too. Most onions we just find have too strong of a flavor these days. I don’t want any color on the onions but it takes the edge off. ❤
Just a note kathybennett, soak your raw onions in water and they won’t be so strong
Thanks Debbie, yes I have done that and add a little vinegar to the water afterwards rinse helps
It looks absolutely delicious 😋❤️ Thank You So Much for sharing God Bless You Both 🤗💜💞
That looks amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Sounds so good! Can’t wait to make it. 🌻😊
We must have been on the same wavelength!! Was funny to see this video this afternoon as I made this yesterday for dinner. It's quick to fix and feeds an army!!! It was fun watching someone else make it. 🌮
I had never done taco salad this way. But I tried this - and I will never do it any other way again DELICIOUS!! ❤ ❤ ❤
Great video. Love this salad.
You're right, this is a great recipe!
That looks absolutely delicious. Yummy 😋
I'd love to have some right now. My daughter-in-law made that salad for us before and it's delicious. She had avocado slices, black olives, sliced Jalapeños, etc. on the table for those who wanted to dress it up even more. She also had Spanish rice on the side. Thank you for sharing. I have to make this.
I grew up eating this taco salad, my aunt brought this recipe from Texas to Minnesota in the 70's. Only difference is we put in cucumbers & use green onions instead of red or white onion. Then put all ingredients together, I remember eating this salad for all of our family get togethers.
That looks so delicious!!! I would also add some black olives to it for even a little more flavor. Thank you both for the great recipes!!
That looks DELICIOUS!!! Will definitely be making this!
Yes that is one of our most favorite taco salads!!!
It looks Delicious! Thank you for sharing! ❤
This would be an awesome game day dish……our family gathers for game day, 8 of us and 4 grandkids. I’m a new subscriber, love the heading “come sit at my table”. So inviting.
My favorite is Original Western (sweet and smooth) dressing if you don't like Catalina. Love this taco salad Thank you for sharing
I got that recipe years ago from my sister-in-law and like you, I love it. Thanks for reminding me about it. When I make it, I don't add any beans to it and I end up using two bottles of salad dressing. I used Russian Dressing in mind but Catalina would also be an excellent choice. I will be getting the ingredients for this salad later so that I can make it for my church group (we meet every Wed.) so that they can enjoy it as well.
Hey guys. We're from Southern beautiful West Virginia. Love this low crime state. Keep sharing you videos with us. God Bless.
Looks yummy. I would some dour cream and slices of avocado.
Oh me too and some diced black olives, I’m soooo hungry now!!!
It looks delicious!
Sounds like a good recipe to use up leftover chili! Thanks💜
Looks so good thank you for shaing
I like to use Western dressing instead of Catalina dressing or French dressing. It has a better flavor in my opinion.
I need that taco salad every day and twice on Sunday
I TOTALLY AGREE!! I also put the add in’s in separate bowls so everyone can add what they want. I also use sour cream and taco sauce on the side. My actual salad has the taco seasoned meat, onions chopped fine, and black olives. Crushed up Doritos and western dressing, but not drenched in western in case someone wants to add taco sauce
I love the western too.
I can't remember the name of a pie recipe you made. It had something to do with a horse race. Would you help me?
Excuse me for my ignorance, but what is Western Dressing??
I made this today. Delicious and fed 4 people here and sent big bowl to neighbors for 3 more people to eat. It does make a huge bowl.
You literally brought me back to my childhood with your videos. When I was young my piano player at church made this for every potluck Sunday ❤ I grew up in southern Illinois across from Paducah Kentucky and so many of these recipes bring back great memories. I appreciate you.
Ok so I made this tonight and it's wonderful like all your other recipes ❤️
Delicious 😋 looks delicious I love taco salad yummy 😋
I do have stuff that solidifies the fat but your aluminum foil trick is cool. I’ve been making this salad (minus the onions and the beans) for a few decades. It was always a great addition to a potluck and it’s got to be the Catalina salad dressing or it doesn’t taste the same. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
We have been making taco salad for at least 30 years. Love it! It’s also great to serve with avocado slices.
I love avocado! And you're right, it's a wonderful salad. Thank you so much for watching.
Looks wonderful. I use black beans because that’s what we like. Thanks Tom and Melissa
Looks soo good thank you for sharing 😋
