Leftover Taco Mexican Dip

Submitted by ChipotleChick

"This is a recipe that I came up with when trying to find a use for all of my taco leftovers from the night before. It is a very versatile recipe, and can be eaten as a dip, or on top of your leftover shredded lettuce. You can omit the spanish rice if making a dip, because it with the chips and the beans it makes for a pretty starchy snack. But on the lettuce, the rice is perfect! Yum!"
