this is our go-to quick meal! We heat up the beans in the microwave (we like Bush's mild), pour over the chips and let the cheese melt. Then, we put all the fixings on the side and let everyone make their own taco salad.

I cooked 1lb of ground beef prior and added it to the beans, plus 1 tsp of chili powder. Delicious!

This is a super quick and easy go-to recipe. DH is a vegetarian, so this satisfies both of us. We use chili corn chips, depending on what we have on hand. Thanks for sharing this!

This was so simple and fast but so delicious. I did add cooked hamburger with taco seasoning in it. Awesome!

Wonderful recipe. My 2 year old was able to help with this. Next time I would probably mix the beans with some seasoned hamburger!
