Taco Dip

Submitted by Tinkerbell

"This is a recipe adapted from a friend i knew in the mid 80's. The original recipe included chopped tomatoes, but i found the dip too soupy with them. I leave out the tomatoes and serve with salsa instead. This is also really great the next day if you leave out the lettuce as well. Adding browned and drained ground beef to the beans will make this a meal."
