Great for a fast meal! I used all of the ingredients but just iceberg lettuce. I also sprinkled on some taco seasoning with the chili powder and it was wonderful! I used more tortilla chips also to get the crunch! My daughter loved! -
This is a very good salad. I used Doritos for the tortilla chips. -
I can't believe I forgot to rate this recipe. Since finding it several months back, I've made this over and over again. SO easy, and SO delicious. Sometimes I use ground turkey instead of chicken but we love it both ways. Thanks so much for sharing. -
Great recipe! I used up some leftover cooked turkey that I fried up in a pan with the additional ingredients. We all loved this one! It was an easy and yummy dinner! Thanks, ratherbeswimmin! -
Excellent recipe!! I was making a mexican bean soup but wanted something to accompany it. This recipe was very simple and easy to make. It also tasted delicious. Did not need the bean soup as this was filling enough on its own. Instead of using crushed tortilla chips, I cut 10" flour tortillas into strips and 'fried' them in a little canola oil. Thank you for the recipe!!
