Venison Taco Salad

Who doesn’t love a simple & delicious recipe, this is a perfect make a head meal or when you need something in a hurry. This is a family recipe that I had years ago, but have developed it over time to incorporate things that we love like ground venison, sometimes I’m in a hurry and don’t have time to make the salad dressing & Catalina dressing is an amazing substitute. What I love about this recipe is that it makes enough for dinner, but there’s always plenty leftover for our lunches the next day!
