âWe love Southwest-flavored foods and this fun recipe is a favorite,â writes June Barrus from Springville, Utah. âIf you like it hotter, just add some chili powder and cumin.â Ingredients:

1/4 pound lean ground beef (90% lean) |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
3/4 cup canned mexican diced tomatoes, undrained |
2 teaspoons tomato paste |
3/4 cup canned ranch style beans (pinto beans in seasoned tomato sauce), undrained |
1 package (1 ounce) corn chips |
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1/2 cup shredded lettuce |
1 medium tomato, diced |
2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives |
2 tablespoons salsa |
