all you need is some nacho chips(or pita bread), ground beef(or if you perfer turkey), tomatoes, letece, cuucembers, shreeded cheese, sour cream cheese, a spicy indregent(i perfer pepper and curshed red chilli peppers). start by browning the meat that you prefer in a fying pan with a little water to cover the bottom of the pan so it won't stick. use a spatula to chop the meat up, while in the frying pan, to small chunks while stirring the meat. all the while, start to prepare the salad part of the dish while the meat is cooking. chop as much letece as desired into a small bowl(i perfer roman letece) chop tomatoes and cuumcmbers into bowl also. check the meat again and chop into even small peices(like tacos look) and add the spicy indergents of your choice. once all of the meat is browned an ready to be servered you can go back to the salad. it all depends on you what you would like to have in this dish, because everyone makes it alittle different. start by tossing the salad to make it even(if you like you can add the cheese now or later). some like to put salad dressing into there salads if you would like to, go ahead and do so(i perfer itatlin dressing). now to the nachos; some like whole nachoes but i perfer mines to be warm and into broken pieces. you can warm the nachoes or pita bread up in the microwave for like a minute if that long just to get them warm. get you plates out and put either the nachos or pita bread on the plate. add as much meat as you would perfer,then the salad(if you didn't add the cheese to the salad already you may top the cheese ontop now) all you have to do is add the finishing touches which is the sour cream cheese just add alittle ontop and you have a tasty taco salad, enjoy!
sorry i know there are many misspelled words lol, but the spell check isn't working lol!
