What You Need

flour tortillas (8 inch)

3/4

lb. extra-lean ground beef

Tbsp. chili powder

cup rinsed canned kidney beans

1/2

cup TACO BELL® Thick & Chunky Salsa

cups packed torn mixed salad greens

1/2

cup KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

large tomato, chopped

Tbsp. KRAFT Lite Ranch Dressing

Make It

HEAT oven to 425°F.

CRUMPLE 4 sheets of foil to make 4 (3-inch) balls; place on baking sheet. Top each with 1 tortilla; spray with cooking spray. Bake 6 to 8 min. or until tortillas are golden brown. (Tortillas will drape over balls as they bake to form shells.)

MEANWHILE, brown meat with chili powder in large nonstick skillet. Stir in beans and salsa; cook 3 to 5 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

FILL tortilla shells with salad greens, meat mixture, cheese and tomatoes. Drizzle with dressing.

OMG! I love this taco salad, it's so filling, and delicious. My whole entire family loves this, and my son whose a picky-eater loves this.

Very yummy! I used sour cream instead of ranch. I will be making this again and again!

This was a great salad! I added low-fat sour cream with the ranch dressing. I can't wait to make this again, maybe with vegeterian refried beans.

This is great new twist on taco salad. However, I changed it up a bit. I prepared my ground beef just like I would for tacos. I used a taco seasoning pack. I cooked my kidney beans with the meat. I microwaved the shells for a few seconds to help shape them around the foil, then I placed them in the oven. I followed the rest of the recipe. This was a big hit with my family.
