Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 1 oz package taco seasoning
  • 1 15 oz. can Ranch Style or chili beans drained well,
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 1 cup heapingchopped tomatoes
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce chopped

  • ½ - ¾ cup Catalina dressing
  • Doritos nacho cheese or corn chips crushed

Instructions

  • Brown the beef in a skillet over medium heat. Drain any excess grease.
  • Stir in the taco seasoning and ¼ cup of water. Reduce to a simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove from the heat and let cool. Cover and place in the icebox for 30 minutes or until chilled.
  • Mix the beef, beans, onion and tomatoes together in a large bowl. Stir in the lettuce and cheese. Stir in the dressing, to taste.

Notes

This makes a generous amount, so if saving for leftovers add the chips and dressing only to the amount being served immediately to prevent the dish from getting soggy.
