1cupshredded lettuce
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet, over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook about 8 minutes or until no longer pink; drain.
While the beef is cooking add all of the salsa ingredients into a medium-sized mixing bowl and stir to combine. When finished, place plastic wrap over the bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. I will sometimes make this in the morning so that all the flavors have time to combine.
Add taco seasoning packet, and water and bring to a boil. Reduce to heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Place taco meat into a serving bowl.
Fold down the top of the bag of corn chips and layer the meat on top of the chips. Next add cheese, lettuce, salsa, and sour cream.
