Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by dicing the green pepper and chopping the yellow onion into small pieces. Halve the grape tomatoes and shred the iceberg lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a vigorous boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook for about 7-9 minutes, or until al dente. Drain and rinse under cool water.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat, then add taco seasoning and a splash of water.
- In the large mixing bowl, toss in the cooled rotini, seasoned ground beef, shredded cheddar jack cheese, and sliced black olives. Mix gently.
- Pour the French dressing over the salad mixture and toss until evenly coated.
- Right before serving, crush Doritos and fold them into the salad.
