Dress and Serve (2 minutes): Gently toss the salad with the Thousand Island dressing until all ingredients are lightly coated. Add crumbled tortilla chips just before serving to maintain their crunch. Garnish with extra chips and your favorite toppings.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the taco seasoning or use a spicy taco seasoning mix.
To prevent the tortilla chips from getting soggy, add them just before serving. You can also serve them on the side for dipping.
Feel free to customize the salad with your favorite toppings. Avocado, sour cream, and salsa are excellent additions.
For a healthier option, use ground turkey breast and a light Thousand Island dressing.
This salad is a great way to use leftover cooked turkey.
