Taco Pasta Salad

A hearty and flavorful taco pasta salad featuring seasoned ground beef, rotini pasta, fresh vegetables, cheese, and a creamy dressing, topped with crushed Doritos for crunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef, cooked and drained
  • 1 pound rotini pasta, cooked, drained, and rinsed with cold water
  • 1 ounce (3 tablespoons) taco seasoning
  • 1 green pepper, diced small
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced small
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar jack cheese
  • 3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 1/2 cups French dressing
  • 9 3/4 ounce bag Nacho Doritos, crushed

Instructions

  1. Stir together the cooked ground beef and taco seasoning.
  2. In a very large bowl, mix together the beef, cooked pasta, green pepper, onion, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese.
  3. Mix in the French dressing until everything is well coated.
  4. Stir in the crushed Doritos just before serving.

Notes

For best results, serve immediately after adding the Doritos to maintain crunch. This salad is perfect for potlucks and parties. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator, but the Doritos may soften over time.
