Help Needed: 7 Layer Taco Salad Recipe?

[SusanK]

I was listening to the CD "How to Make Your Kitchen Show Sparkle" and the person on the CD said that the 7 layer taco salad was good and used a lot of products. I haven't been able to find it, any ideas? Please advise. Much appreciated.

1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups corn chips (optional)

1. In Small Batter Bowl, combine sour cream and salsa; mix well and
Set aside
2. Drain and rinse beans using large Colander. Using Chef’s Knife,
Dice bell pepper and tomatoes; thinly slice green onions. Layer beans, bell pepper, lettuce, tomatoes and green onions in Simple Additions Large Bowl

Spreading evenly. Grate cheese over top using Deluxe Cheese Grater. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Top with corn chips, if desired, and serve
