  • Brown meat with packet of taco seasoning. Spread meat over refried beans.
  • Add sour cream and spread overtop as well.
  • Stir guacamole to make it easier to spread. Drop dollops of the guacamole over the surface of the sour cream layer and carefully spread into an even layer.
  • Top with cheddar jack cheese, lettuce, green onion, bell pepper, olives, and cilantro.
  • Press down the toppings gently to create a relatively smooth “surface” on the salad.
  • Sprinkle crushed blue tortilla chips in the upper left-hand corner of the dish.
  • Beginning and ending with the tomatoes, rotate rows of chopped tomatoes and mozzarella cheese to form the stripes of the “flag.”
  • Cut out star shapes from the cheese slices and place them on top of the blue corn chips.
