I have been going to alot of cookouts this Memorial day weekend and thought I would share my taco salad recipe with you:

A big bowl of your favorite lettuce cut up
Shredded carrots (a handful or so)
1/2 cup chopped purple cabbage - optional (good color)
20 cut in half grape tomatoes (or whatever you have is okay too)
1 can black beans drained (kidney would work fine too)
small bag of shredded cheddar or mexican blend cheese (8 oz)
1/3 bag of crushed taco flavored chips (cheese flavor ok - but taco is better)
1/2 bottle of Catalina dressing
you can also add black olives and green onions too if you want

This salad rocks!!!
