Doritos Taco Salad

If your dreams don’t scare you they’re not big enough.

I fell off The American Idol bandwagon a few years ago, and I have not really gotten into any other music competition show. That is until The Voice came around last year. Naturally I am going to watch a show that involves Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. What a great combination of hot men!

But really I just liked the concept of choosing the contestants based on their voice instead of their appearance. I think that is why they invited Christina Aguilera to be a judge…because that woman can sing.

Chris has been jonesing for Taco Bell (he likes Taco Bell as much as Christina likes her boobs), so I thought about picking him up some of the Doritos Locos Tacos. Instead I figured I would make my own spin of…

Doritos Taco Salad

Ingredients:

1 pound hamburger

1 packet taco seasoning

1 bag Doritos Nacho Cheese

lettuce

tomato

cheese

Directions:

1. Cook beef and add seasoning.

2. Layer Doritos on bottom of bowl.

3. Top with lettuce and meat.

4. Add desired toppings.

5. Enjoy!

Nacho Cheese Doritos are key to making the best taco salad ever! The more cheese the better. I like to use them in my vegetarian version with a Lean Cuisine Santa Fe-Style Beans & Rice instead of meat.

Instead of serving individually, you can toss everything in a big bowl for a easy family dinner.

This salad is nice because you can use the chips to eat it…

Or when it gets a little messing, just dig right in with a fork.

I wish I could find a Pug Bobblehead like the Taco Bell Chihuahua.

“Yo Queiro Taco Bell!” Just pretend the green stuff is sour cream and not Shamrock Shake. He would make the perfect mascot.

What do you like to order at Taco Bell?

I am partial to the 7 Layer Burrito.

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

After blogging for four months, I decided it was time to start a Facebook Page for Sally Spins. I have been posting on and off on my personal page about my favorite posts, but I like the idea of letting people decide if they want to be updated on what I am making each day. It is so convenient following blogs through Facebook because I can scroll through my News Feed to see which ones I want to read that day.

Personally I would rather read about Healthy Mint Oreo Shakes verses Bacon Wrapped Dove. By liking my page you can do just that. Just click here to follow me:

I also have an option in my sidebar if you decide to like me later.

I also am ashamed to admit that I am new to the Twitter world. Facebook became a quick obsession for me in college, so you would think I would have been on the Twitter bandwagon as well. Nope…just started a few weeks ago. Boy was I missing out. I know more about Black Shelton and the Kardashian clan than I should admit. I also am partial to Eat This, Not That!, Foodbuzz, Cooking Light and Hungry Girl to keep up on healthy eating. Plus I can follow things happening in OKC. I feel so connected right now.

If you want to follow me on twitter, I am @SallySpins.

If you are not part of the Twitter world go and get an account. You will not regret it. You never have to tweet a thing, and can simply enjoy reading updates about things that interest you. Hopefully Sally Spins will be one of them, so you can read up on…
