Taco Salad
Ingredients:
1/2 head lettuce; washed, drained and shredded or cut into small pieces
1 or 2 diced tomatoes
1 lb. cooked, drained and cooled ground beef
1 8oz. package of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 to 1 1/2 bottles Catalina dressing (you may use more if you like the salad
wetter)
1 medium bag crushed Doritos. Any brand of tortilla chips that are
seasoned will also do.
In a large bowl mix the lettuce, tomatoes, ground beef and cheese. ***Just before serving: add the Catalina dressing and crushed Doritos to the portion you will eat now, in case there are leftovers. Enjoy!!
The chips will get
soggy if you add the dressing and chips too soon before you eat.
German Potato Salad
For eight servings (Enough for 3 to 4 days for two people)
5 pounds
small, red potatoes - sliced very thin. (use old fashioned slicer)
Chopped chives (freeze dried)
2 good size onions
3/4 cup oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar

Potatoes
should come out shiny but not drippy. Different lots can make a
difference in the amount of dressing needed but do not vary the proportions
of 3/4 to 1/4.
