Doritos Cool Ranch Taco Salad is the love child of a tasty taco salad combined Cool Ranch Doritos. It is an amazing salad that even picky eaters love.
The inspiration behind this salad is the Doritos Los Taco. You know, the one that makes you go, “Wow!”
How To Make Doritos Cool Ranch Taco Salad
It’s a really easy salad to make. Really. You start by placing a layer of crushed Cool Ranch Doritos on a plate. (I use some really nifty bowls that are perfect for salads.)
You can either crush the chips directly on the plate or you can crush them in the bag.
Next, the following ingredients top the chips:
- chopped or shredded lettuce
- chopped cucumbers
- shredded cheese
- ground beef that has been seasoned with taco seasoning
- chopped tomatoes
- olives
- Ranch dressing

Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 package taco seasoning
- 1 Cool Ranch Doritos
- 1 8 oz. package shredded lettuce
- 1-2 tomatoes, diced (or 1 cup cherry tomatoes sliced in half)
- 2 cups shredded cheese
- 1 cucumber, peeled, sliced, and cut into quarters
- 1 small can of sliced black olives
- Ranch Dressing
Instructions
- Brown ground beef in skillet until thoroughly cooked. Add taco seasoning and cook according to directions on package. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Hold bag of Doritos in both hands and crush chips.
- Place small layer of chips on plate. Next, add shredded lettuce. Top with ground beef, tomatoes, cheese, cucumbers, and olives.

I like to add one more layer of crunch by adding a few more crushed Doritos to the top after I have drizzled Ranch dressing on top.
