1
Brown the ground beef using the seasonings i have listed to flavor the meat.
2
(I usually add these seasonings to taste since i rarely measure them, so the measurements i have listed are a guideline) Add 1/4 cup of water and let meat and seasonings simmer until liquid is mostly cooked off.
3
You don't want it soupy.
4
Drain on paper toweling.
5
Clean lettuce, tear into bite sized pieces.
6
Toss with all of the rest of the ingredients adding about 1/2 cup of the dressing and tossing again well.
7
Serve with salsa and sour cream on the side if desired.
8
I list Doritos here because, let's face it, they're good!
9
But when I have time, i like to cut up corn tortillas into wedges, fry in a bit of oil, and season with Mexican style spices.
