BeerKid's Mom's Famous Taco Salad...
Brown-up some hamburger meat, drain, season with one of those Taco Seasoning Packets, I prefer to use "hot", add Taco Sauce, Hot Sauce, add Red Beans, I've also used Kidney Beans, Black Beans, your choice, just think about flavor. Than add the Onions last to try to keep'em at that barely cooked perfect texture. Lettuce, shredded cheese, hand crushed chips, cool-ranch, spicy-nacho, many flavors work. Then the secret sauce, which takes some care to get right. Start with lots of mayo (gag, I know, a shiver goes down my spine when I see that much mayo in a bowl) add lots and lots of Taco Sauce, mild or hot, add large amounts of Hot Sauce, Tapatio's red sauce is my favorite, add most of the contents of another Taco Seasoning packet, blend to taste, repeated, hard to get it right, but it's awesome when you do. Blend and mix together on the plate. Bango Boom-Boom!!! BeerKid's Mom's Famous Taco Salad!!! So that was beef, onions, beans, taco sauce, hot sauce, lettuce, cheese, chips, mayo, 2 packets of taco seasoning. Feel free to add peppers, garlic, more beans, Cilantro (man I can't believe I forgot to add Cilantro to the meat+bean+onion mixture) but sometimes keeping it straight-lined simple works and tastes best.
