Fry 1 1/2 lb. of extra lean hamburger with onion. Drain grease and add 2 cans (16 oz size) tomato sauce with seasoning mix.  As this mixture simmers for about 45 minutes, begin to prepare your salad.

Shred heat of lettuce into small pieces. To that add small pieces of chopped celery and green pepper. Toss in a 4 1/2 oz jar of sliced mushrooms and 1 small can of chopped ripe olives. Next, crush 1 package of taco chips with a rolling pin, then add to the salad. Toss well.

Place salad on individual plates and spoon a heaping size of the hot hamburger mixture over the salad. Sprinkle with grated American cheese.

Truly a delightful meal, as you will know by the compliments you will receive.
