Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Cook pasta and set aside.
  2. Brown Ground beef and add taco mix as directed on package.
  3. Add half the onions and peppers and saute till lightly softened.
  4. Transfer to a large bowl then add the remaining ingredients.
  5. Use 1 1/2 bottles of dressing and add more if you like it juicier.
  6. Serve warm or chilled the next day.
  7. I noticed I enjoyed it even more the second day once the flavours had a chance to mingle.
  8. I have never seen Western salad dressing here in Canada - Merlie brought it from the states.
  9. This makes a huge amount - good for big family get-togethers or PotLucks.
  10. If I made it again I would half all the ingredients.
