Theresa's Taco Salad

I don't know where Theresa got this recipe from but it's one of our favorites.

Rinse the ranch style beans in a sieve (or maybe a strainer) and put in a large salad bowl. Coat the beans with the Italian dressing. Brown the ground beef and drain very well. Gently mix the ground beef into the beans. Add the lettuce, tomato, and cheese, and gently toss so as not to mash the beans.

For one serving, slightly crunch half of a small bowl of chips and fill the bowl with mixture, then toss carefully. You could do this in the big bowl but it will make the chips soggy.
