Tortilla Chip Taco Salad image

This is my favorite taco salad recipe, and the reason it's so good is the combination of chunky salsa, mayonnaise, and sour cream for the dressing. I vary a lot of things (might add black beans or chilies or beef instead of turkey), but I stick with this dressing if possible because it's heavenly. In fact, if I don't have a dressing for a salad I'll whip up this combination. You can always leave the dressing separate from the salad in case people want to dress their own or you are taking the salad somewhere and don't want the salad to get soggy.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

The tortilla chips were a bit soggy by the time I got to them, but the rest of the salad was great.

I've made this salad several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually add some extra veggies like chopped bell peppers and corn.
