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
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.
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.
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 UA-cam 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.
Nothing better than a man who can cook!! Especially good old soothing comfort food. Please keep those great videos coming.😊
I have made it like this since late 70s. It was in a Woman's Day magazine in an ad for Catalina dressing.
I use same but add diced red, orange and / or yellow bell pepper. Or some of each makes it very colorful. Sometimes a diced up jalapeño too. If want, diet or sugar free Catalina tastes exactly like the original.
Oh my gosh. The taco salad is a hit! So is the taco dump soup. Thanks you two.
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
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.
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!
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!
Love that you are bringing back all these old recipes. Tried and true.
Just put some sour cream in you bowl and or guac!
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! 👍🥬🍅🧅🌮
The first time I had this was in the 1970’s when my California aunt prepared it at a family reunion. She used Taco flavored Doritos. It’s one of my fondest memories.
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’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!
Like Western dressing too.
Yummy salad.
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!
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
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.
Beautiful salad!
I’ll be adding this to my meal plan for next week!
Oh my, this brought back some yummy memories. I used to make this for a dish to pass at gatherings! Always a hit!!!!
The great thing about taco salad is, make the basics then add or take out what you like or don't like.
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.
Thank you so much Tom and Melissa-your cooking brightens my day! Good tip on saving grease.
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.
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! 👍🏻
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,)
I agree...no Catalina dressing!
That looks so good. I'm not trying to I think I'll try tomorrow for supper. Thank you for sharing that with us. And I appreciate it and God loves you and I love you all and have a great day.
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. ❤
Taco flavored Doritos are the best in this salad! Love this recipe- thank you!
We've never tried those so thanks for the tip! We appreciate that.
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.
Hey guys. We're from Southern beautiful West Virginia. Love this low crime state. Keep sharing you videos with us. 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 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.
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.
I had never done taco salad this way. But I tried this - and I will never do it any other way again DELICIOUS!! ❤ ❤ ❤
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!!
Taco salad is so tasty. Thanks for sharing your version
My favorite is Original Western (sweet and smooth) dressing if you don't like Catalina. Love this taco salad Thank you for sharing
First timer here!! Love taco salad and great idea of draining grease!! I use paper towel but your how to..best. thanks
I love this recipe!! I’ve been making it since the 80’s and it’s my favorite.
Nothing to not like about this recipe! Love the crunch of Doritos!
Yummy!!
😢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!
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 ❤️
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.
I sooo remember this being the very first Taco Salad I ever had! I was in 4th grade and my grandmother, who was a nurse, would make this for her potlucks! I’m now 62! This is such a great, and never-forgotten taco salad! Thank you!! P.S. I love the grease “hack”!!
Looks delicious
We think it's delightful! Thanks so much for watching. We hope you enjoy it soon.
I love this taco salad one of my favorites!
I hit “like” before I even watch your videos. Never seen anything you’ll posted that I didn’t like.
I'm always impressed with your organizational skills. Your recipes are so easy to follow and fun to watch you make. Other UA-cam 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 just had this at a party yesterday and it was delicious. I used to make this years ago. It seems like a lot of the old recipes are coming back around.
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. 🌮
This is my favorite taco salad!!!
That looks DELICIOUS!!! Will definitely be making this!
The taco salad looks delicious.
♥️👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️👏👏👏♥️
YUMMMMMMMMM~O
THANK YOU 😊 FOR SHARING 👍
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.
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!!
45 years ago at a church in Harrisburg Pennsylvania, a lady gave me this recipe. The only difference is that we add black olives. It is always a winner. One of our sons likes Ranch dressing, so we make part of the salad with Ranch instead of Catalina. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome. We really appreciate that you are watching our channel.
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.
I love Taco salad and this looks so good. Thanks for sharing.
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?? 🙏🙏🙏
I use Catalina dressing too. Black beans good also. I add a little water with the taco seasons and simmer a little. Thanks for the tip for draining fat I will surely do that. I will make it your way at least once. A good party plan.
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 just had dinner but I sure could go for a bite of that taco salad. Yum! Thank you for the recipe!
You're right, this is a great recipe!
The salad looks wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I’m going to make this salad has a nice light supper when my family is over. 😊
Actually when you added your beans you did say to drain and rinse them. Thats what i love about your videos. You are very thorough about all directions. Not to mention i have made alot, and i do mean alot of your recipes and they are delicious.❤😊
Still having trouble printing your recipes. It will not allow copy paste. Help!
My wife just made this for dinner and I must say the taco seasoning with the Catalina dressing and sour cream on top has a wonderful taste thanknyou for your recipes
Yummy
Agree! Thanks so much for watching.
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.
YES!! The aluminum foil hack was great🎉🎉🎉
I have been making this salad forever..totally awesome….
You need Ortega Taco sauce to let people add this to their individual bowls along with more dressing if desired, plus ADD AVACADOS..chunked up..that is in the original salad recipe....pass around the bowl of chips so people can also add extra chips to their bowls!
Original recipe called for PURPLE onions..makes prettier salad! Yes drain beans for this salad and they are to be added to the HOT COOKED HAMBURGER..not directly to the salad..the idea is the hot hamburger mix added to the cold salad mix..
Western dressing , and sour cream makes this really good
Sounds so good! Can’t wait to make it. 🌻😊
Looks wonderful. I use black beans because that’s what we like. Thanks Tom and Melissa
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??
That looks absolutely delicious . Thanks for
sharing..❤
We LOVE this !!! It feeds a crown too. I've done it with taco Doritos also but I think I like the nacho best and I use western but the Catalina is really good too. I usually serve with garlic bread or double the batch for carry ins. People just love it
It really is a great recipe! Thanks so much for confirming how popular it is with people! We appreciate that you watched our video.
Yes that is one of our most favorite taco salads!!!
That looks absolutely delicious. Yummy 😋
A lady from my church always brought this dish to every potluck. It was her signature dish and everyone loved it!
It looks delicious!
Good recipe🎉
I love you very vidos im from kurdistan I love you smlie
I absolutely love taco salad and will try this. Yum!
This looks better than traditional taco salad! Thanks for sharing ☺️
It's much better
We actually do enjoy it more. Thank you so much for watching. We appreciate it.
What's the traditional taco salad? I've always made it this way.
Thanks for the tip on how to drain your meat! That is a really handy idea! Saves one from burning themselves trying to get the grease out. Thanks!!
Catalina is scarce around here so I use French in it's place. Makes a tasty substitute. 😊
That really is a handy dandy tool, that "meat breaker upper". I bought one myself as your wrist gets tired chopping meat. It sure makes fast work out of a "boring" part of cooking
I love taco salad!!!!
I am making this for lunch tomorrow or Tuesday! I have all the ingredients except Doritos and Catalina Dressing . Hopefully I can pick this up tonight. I love a taco salad and the ingredients together seem like the dish would be 😋. BTW, love the grease draining tip. Thanks
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.
Hi Tom & Melissa!! I made this tonight for dinner and WOW is it amazing!!!! I actually just realized, I forgot to put the beans in it!! lol. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It’s fantastic!! (I’ve been binge watching your videos and can’t wait to try so many of the recipes y’all share😊)
That salad looks delicious I ate that once at a church potluck I like how you put out all thei ingredients in the recipe and explained everything
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. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
I just found your channel today! I’m so excited to have found it, it’s my new favorite channel and will be for a long time to come! You’re so refreshing to watch. It’s very warm and inviting! Thank you for your content snd sharing who you are!
I’ve forgotten about this salad. I’m going to make this soon. So yummy
