Description

This Seven-Layer Taco Salad layers seasoned beef, fresh veggies, creamy guacamole, and crisp lettuce with a hint of spice. It’s an easy-to-make, crowd-pleasing salad that brings a touch of fiesta to any table. Serve with tortilla chips for scooping or enjoy it as a standalone meal!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 packet taco seasoning mix
  • 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup guacamole
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce (iceberg or romaine)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • Tortilla chips (for serving, optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ground Beef:

    • In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until fully browned. Drain any excess fat.
    • Stir in the taco seasoning and cook according to package instructions. Let cool slightly.

  2. Layer the Salad:

    • In a large glass dish or trifle bowl, spread the refried beans in an even layer on the bottom.
    • Layer the cooked taco-seasoned beef over the beans.
    • Spread sour cream over the beef, followed by a layer of guacamole.
    • Spoon salsa evenly over the guacamole layer.

  3. Add Fresh Ingredients:

    • Layer the shredded lettuce over the salsa.
    • Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, followed by diced tomatoes, black olives, and green onions.

  4. Chill and Serve:

    • Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
    • Serve chilled with tortilla chips on the side for scooping.

Notes

  • Storage: This salad can be made a few hours ahead. If storing leftovers, keep the tortilla chips separate to prevent sogginess.
  • Variations: For extra heat, add jalapeños or use a spicy salsa. You can also swap ground beef for turkey or a plant-based meat alternative.
