Mom's Taco Salad

Ingredients:
rice (I use brown)
1 lb. ground beef
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 can black or kidney beans, heated
1 can corn, heated
shredded lettuce
grated cheese
salsa or pico de gallo
tortilla chips, slightly crushed
fresh tomatoes (optional)
olives (optional)

Directions:
Start the rice in rice cooker. Brown ground beef and add seasoning mix, following directions on envelope. Cut, grate, heat, and prepare all remaining ingredients. Pile on according to your liking for a delicious salad.

Notes:
I prefer to make my homemade pico de gallo recipe, so I don't do fresh tomatoes. Also, it's really good with the creamy tomatillo dressing from Cafe Rio. I often just pick that up to spice up my dinner.
