Veggie Taco Salads!

Ingredients:
Tortilla Chips
Romain Lettuce
Avacado diced
Shredded Cheddar and Jack Cheese blend
Black Olives sliced
Fresh Cilantro chopped
Spanish Rice (can use a box mix like Farmhouse or make your own)
Whole Black Beans
Whole Pinto Beans
Ranch Dressing
Salsa (Fresh salsa is best or purchased from a Mexican restaurant -- as opposed to a store brand)
Sour Cream

These salads are so easy to make. It sounds like a lot of ingredients, but you will get SEVERAL taco salads out of this recipe.

Build the salad from the bottom for visual appeal.

In large bowl, place a layer of tortilla chips on the bottom of the bowl. Top with chopped Romain lettuce. Sprinkle with cheese.

Using a large mixing spoon, place a spoonful of black beans, pinto beans, and spanish rice on top of the lettuce, but don't overlap.

Next, spoon in the sour cream, salsa, diced avacado. (Again, try not to overlap toppings so the ingredients are spread out on top of the lettuce)

Top with fresh cilantro and black olives. Serve with a side of Ranch dressing.

YUM!

(Optional: Add grilled chicken or marinated steak)

I don't see why it wouldn't work out just as good... thinking even dried apricots.

I don't know if the one JHE is referring to is on there, but all of Paul Kirk's sauces sound delicious! I think I might have to try that one for the Apricot and Habanero Glaze.

First off, it's a Mennonite I dish learned how to make it from my MIL. Goes great with pork dishes.

I used about a 1/3rd of a med sized cabbage thinnly sliced
1/2 cup raisins or prunes (cut up)
sprinkle of salt
3-4 tbsps vinegar
3-4 tbsps brown sugar

Get your frying pan ready and slice your cabbage in nice thin slices. Pour some oil in your pan and throw the cabbage in. I like to steam fry it so I put some water in it and cover with a lid so it steams the cabbage and softens it. To just fry it would take a lot longer. When the cabbage has softened and almost done, I put in about 1/2 cup of raisins or more that I soaked previously. Or you could use dried prunes, depends what you have or what your preference is. Lightly salt your cabbage and let the cabbage and raisins slowly simmer and keep a watch on it, cause burnt cabbage tastes terrible. The fried cabbage will take on the color a bit of the raisins. When everything is done, add about 3 - 4 tbsps of brown sugar and about the same of vinegar. I use apple cider vinegar. Then let is simmer for a couple of mins to let the cabbage absorb the vinegar and sugar. Now you have and excellent addition for your supper. Enjoy... it's simple and delicious.

ps. Let me know how it turns out for ya...

Gave this a try yesterday. Everyone liked it, and my Wife really dislikes sauerkraut, so that is a giood testimonial.

I cooked it in a crockpot. Used a whole head of green cabbage thinly shreddedwith few tablespoons of rendered bacon fat and a half cup each of cider vinegar and brown sugar. Cooked it on high for a couple hours until the cabbage became tender.

Added a generous handful of Craisins (dried sweetened cranberries) thrown in once the cabbage had softened. Some sea salt to taste.

Served it with some smoked beef bratwurst and rice pilaf.
