I was at a party last weekend and had the best salad that had crushed doritos in it.....anyone have a good recipe for anything like that?.....also for casseroles with hamburger or chicken AND doritos in them?
 
This isn't the salad you're looking for, but it was one of my very favorite "quick and easy" recipes before I started doing low carb. Enjoy!! I wish I could join you.

Big Bertha

Sauté:

1 lb. lean ground beef
2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 c. green onion, sliced
1 small can sliced black olives

Add:

2 cans stewed tomatoes
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
1 can chopped green chilies

Simmer for about 20 minutes.

Other ingredients needed:

1 (14 oz.) pkg. Doritos
1/2 lb. Monterey jack cheese, shredded (more if desired)
1 pt. sour cream
1/2 c. cheddar cheese shredded (I use more)

In a 9 X 13 pan, layer half of the pkg. of Doritos. Add meat mixture on top—then the Jack cheese—next the sour cream—and then the rest of the chips. Cover with foil and bake at 325 for about 15 minutes, uncover, then add the shredded cheddar cheese and finish baking, about 15 more minutes. Serve with taco sauce. My Notes: Yum! Yum! One of my favorites!!!!
 
a family favorite -

1 lb ground hamburg made just like 4 taco's with seasoning - cool in fridge
1 head of lettuce (chopped)
2 Tomatoes (chopped)
shredded cheese
1 bag doritos - crushed
nothing should be chopped to fine or you will have mush!

combine all in a bowl
then add 1/2 bottle of french dressing - mix it in and serve

it is awesome!
 
My sister makes an awesome Taco salad with Doritos

1 lb hamburger browned, add 1 package taco seasoning, cook according to directions on package. Cool.

1 tomatoe chopped
12 black olives chopped
1 med. green pepper chopped
1 med. onion chopped
1 8oz bag shredded cheddar (not the fancy shredded, gets to mushy)
1 head of lettuce chopped to bite size pieces. (or 1 bag of salad mix)
1 bottle of Catalina dressing, small size
1 bag Doritos (original flavor)

Place all ingredients in bowl except, Doritos, meat, and salad dressing. Add them and toss about 5 minutes before serving. So if you are taking this somewhere, just add them when you get there or the chips get all icky.
 

My Taco Salad recipe is like the last 2, but includes a can of kidney beans or black beans. Rinse & drain. This has always been a family favorite!

Here's another really good recipe. You can just replace the Cheez-Its with Doritos. When I use Doritos, I skip the taco seasoning & just add 1 - 2 teaspoons of chili powder instead.

Cheez-Its Chicken

2 - 3 c Cheez-Its, finely crushed
1 pkg taco seasoning
4 chicken breasts, boneless

Put Cheez-Its in a gallon-sized bag & seal removing as much air as possible. Using a rolling pin or the side of a meat mallet, crush the crackers. Pour crushed crackers into a bowl & add the dry taco seasoning. Mix until seasoning is evenly distributed. Dredge chicken in cracker mixture & place in a microwave safe dish. If there is any cracker mix left, pour it evenly over the chicken in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap & microwave until done.

I love this Taco Salad and it's SOOO easy!!

1 can of kidney beans drained
1 2 Cup pkg of grated chedda cheese or Mexican 4 cheese
5 or 6 green onions chopped and diced small. Can use regular white onions if you prefer
1 bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos chopped finely. (I usually take a rolling pin or meat tenderizer clever and smash the chips while they are still in the bag).

Mix all together in a large salad bowl and chill 2 or 3 hours.
about 30 mins before you want to serve add a small bottle of Kraft Catalina salad dressing and toss.

You can change this recipe as you want. You can add a can of black olives if you want (I don't like them so I don't) you can add more or less of cheese. With or w/o onions -- whatever you want!

Be prepared for tons of compliments and everyone wanting your wonderful recipe!
