Taco Salad with Homemade Tortilla Shell

Tortilla Shell
I used flour tortillas and a cupcake sheet. Simply, the cupcake sheet was used to shape the tortillas. 

Preheat oven to 425. Place cupcake sheet in the over for 5 min, check and rotate the pan. Leave in for 5 more min, then let cool. 



Doritos Taco Salad
(This is the same taco salad I previously posted.)   
·  1 lb of beef (I used 1 pound and` had extra meat)
·  lettuce - chopped
·  1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
·  1 6-ounce can olives, chopped
·  1 small can of kidney beans (black beans would be best, but I used what was in the pantry)
·  2 tomatoes, chopped
·  1-2 avocados, chopped
·  Crushed Doritos
·  salt and pepper to taste

Brown the ground beef and add your favorite taco seasoning to taste. Once cooked, add kidney beans to warm with meat. Drain the grease and set aside for salad. Combine all ingredients and toss with dressing.

Homemade Catalina Dressing 
·  1/4 cup ketchup 
·  1/4 cup granulated sugar
·  1/4 cup red or white wine vinegar
·  1/4 cup onion finely chopped
·  1/2 teaspoon paprika

·  1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
·  Salt and pepper to taste
