This recipe is going to sound very strange, but this taco salad has been a family favorite for years. We've made it so much, we just eyeball all the ingredients, but I know you use equal amounts of the wet ingredients in this recipe. Adjust ingredients to your taste, and prepare to be suprised. This is great for a lunch or even an appetizer for a party.

CRAZY TACO SALAD



Crazy Taco Salad image

I received this recipe from my sis in law at my bridal shower 28 years ago. It's still a favorite, at pot lucks and at home for dinner on a hot summer day. It's crazy because the dressing for the Taco salad is - Italian, but nothing else will do. We've also tried other beans, has to Ranch style. You'll get rave reviews.
