__________________________________
Brown ground beef with onion, adding garlic powder.  Cook until no longer pink; drain and return to pan.  Do not turn heat back on.  Add package of taco seasoning and one packetful of water; combine well.  Add ranch beans and green chiles and mix well.  In a large bowl combine chopped lettuce, crunched up Doritos, and diced tomatoes.  Add ground beef mixture to lettuce mixture once ground beef mixture has cooled a bit; mix together.  You can serve at this point with sour cream, salsa, and ranch dressing, or you can pour ranch dressing over the entire salad and mix it in and serve like that.  Delicious either way.  Serves approximately 6-8.
