This recipe makes a lot and is a complete meal. This is a family recipe and we love to make it in the summer. The dressing tastes best when refrigerated overnight.

Time 1h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 pounds ground beef
½ cup chili powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons ground cumin
¾ cup sliced black olives
2 (14 ounce) cans light red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (16 ounce) garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 (16 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 cups mayonnaise
1 cup taco sauce
2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
1 tomato, chopped
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 cups crumbled tortilla chips

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion until it has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue cooking and stirring until the onion is very tender and dark brown, 15 to 20 minutes more.
  • Cook and stir ground beef into onion until the beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease. Stir in chili powder, oregano, and cumin until incorporated, 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in olives, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, pinto beans, and black beans; cool.
  • Mix together mayonnaise, taco sauce, and hot pepper sauce in a bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Layer lettuce with tomatoes, Cheddar cheese, bean mixture, tortilla chips, and dressing to serve.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little more seasoning to the taco meat.
