This was awesome! My family loved it! I served it with a little sour cream on top, as well. This served way more than four. There were six eating and there was enough for some seconds. Will definetely make this again.

ok ..whats not to like. taco salad flavored up. one tiny suggestion though. cook meat mix in bacon olives salsa and southwest dip.put lettuce and tomatoes on plates top with meat mixture then cheese and chips. the way the recipe says to prepare, by the time everyone got to table meat is cold ...still good ....but hot is better.
