Joan's Taco Salad

Before becoming a mommy, I worked full-time with some really fun ladies.  Joan used to make this delicious taco salad and bring it in for all of us to enjoy.  It's really good!

Joan's Taco Salad
1 lb ground beef
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
2 yellow bell peppers, thinly sliced
lettuce
chopped tomatoes
shredded cheddar cheese
16 oz bottle Catalina dressing or 16 bottle of Ortega Taco Sauce
Large bag of Doritos

Brown ground beef and drain the fat.  Set aside in a large bowl.  In a hot skillet, add oil and peppers.  Cook only for a minute or 2.  Remove from pan and add to the meat.  Layer the lettuce, tomatoes and cheese over the meat and peppers.  When ready to serve, pour the dressing or taco sauce over the layers and toss well.  Add the chips and toss and serve.

If you like sweeter flavored meals, use the Catalina.  If you prefer savory flavors, use the taco sauce.  Daddy prefers the taco sauce.
