With seasoned beef, crisp lettuce, creamy cheese, and that unmistakable Dorito crunch, it’s a crowd-pleaser that vanishes fast. The vibrant mix of textures—crisp veggies, tender meat, crunchy chips—creates a dish that feels both hearty and refreshing.
One of the biggest appeals of this salad is how simple it is to prepare. The only cooking involved is browning the beef, and the rest comes together effortlessly in a large bowl.
