I recently purchased this new cookbook. If you love cookooks with pictures like I do then you will like this book. Anyway, last night I made the TASTIEST dinner ever. I didn't follow the recipe exactly as the book instructed but I think my version is better. However I'll give you the original recipe and let you know what I changed.

BAKED TACO SALAD

2 cups of cooked cut up chicken
1 medium onion
2 1/2 teaspoons garlic
12 corn tortillas cut into small pieces
1 cup sour cream
1 can tomato soup
1 can corn
1 can black beans
1 can chopped green chilies (I skipped these)
1 package taco seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin (I also skipped the cumin-blah)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cup shredded colby-jack cheese
1 can sliced olives

Lettuce
Tomato
Green onion (I skipped the onion and added shredded carrots)
Salsa

Cook the chicken and onion together. Combine chicken, onion, corn tortillas (don't use flour tortillas), sour cream, soup, corn, beans, chilies, taco seasoning, salt, pepper and cumin. Pour into a 9X13 pan. Top with shredded cheese and olives. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes, uncover and bake 15 minutes longer (until cheese is melted and bubbly)
While that is cooking make a salad however you like it on each plate. Top each salad with the baked taco mixture.

Optional: serve with salsa.
