1 head lettuce, finely chopped
1/2 lb. ground sirloin of beef
2 lg. tomatoes, diced
1 1/2 c. grated Cheddar cheese
3/4 c. own favorite dressing
3 tbsp. sour cream

Wash and chop lettuce in advance. Place lettuce in colander so that all moisture can drip out before preparing the salad. Place colander in the refrigerator. Crumble the ground sirloin and cook over medium heat until just done. Put the chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, cooked warm sirloin and 3/4 cup of the grated Cheddar cheese in a large mixing bowl. Add your favorite dressing and toss well. Divide the salad on six plates. Sprinkle remaining 3/4 cup of grated Cheddar cheese evenly on top of each serving. Put 1 1/2 teaspoons sour cream on top of each salad. I like to serve this with toasted tortilla triangles.
