In Wexford, Pennsylvania, Ruth Carter relies on this hearty salad for a quick dinner on busy workdays. “My husband likes the spicy Southwestern flavor and it’s a favorite of mine, too.” TIP: Try serving this flavorful twist on taco salad rolled up in a flour tortilla topped with guacamole, chopped fresh tomatoes and diced sweet onions.
Ingredients:
1/3 pound ground beef
1 small onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup v8 or tomato juice

dash salt
2 cups shredded lettuce
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives, drained, optional

2. Divide lettuce between two salad bowls or plates. Top with beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and olives if desired. Serve with tortilla chips if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
