I made this for us as a trial before the 4th of July party in our neighborhood. Yummy, I plan on doubling this for our block party. I love the flavor of the catalina in this. Thank you for sharing this yummy recipe with us.

    This was yummy. I used ground turkey instead of the beef. I think next time, I would use more lettuce and tomatoes- and less ground beef/ dressing per serving. It was a fun recipe to try, thanks for sharing!

    I was looking for something different to make using ground beef and came across this recipe. I was skeptical about trying it because of the dressing but it was good. I used Frito Lay corn chip scoops instead of the doritos. Instead of mixing it all together, I made individual salads and topped it off with a dollop of sour cream. The leftover ingredients are easier to store this way and you don't have to worry about the salad getting soggy. My son and I really enjoyed this meal.
