- 1 can of Ranch Style Beans (or your preferred beans)
- 10 ounces cheddar cheese (adjust to taste)
- 12 ounces Catalina dressing (adjust to taste)

1. Prepare the taco beef according to the instructions on the taco seasoning packet. Once cooked, set aside to cool.
2. In a large bowl, Combine the chopped lettuce, onion, cherry tomatoes, beans, and cheddar cheese.
3. Add the cooled taco beef to the salad mixture and toss to combine.
Note:
This salad makes a generous portion. If you don't plan to eat it all in one sitting, do not add the Catalina dressing or Fritos to the entire bowl. Instead, scoop out a portion for serving and add the dressing and Fritos before serving. Store the leftover salad in the refrigerator for up to a couple of days, and add the dressing and Fritos each time you serve it.
