Grandma's Taco Salad

I hated this recipe as a child and now I cant get enough of it.
Its also my dads Favorite!

1 Pound Ground beef
 Chili powder or Mexican seasoning
1 or 1/2 Head Iceberg lettuce (depends on how big it is)
1 (16oz) Can Kidney beans(drained and rinsed)
1-2 Tomato Chopped/diced
1 Cup shredded Cheddar cheese
3-4 Cups Corn chips (slightly crushed if they are large chips)
Thousand Island dressing (store bought or homemade)

Cook Meat in skillet over medium high heat.
Meanwhile Wash and chop the lettuces place in large bowl(make sure the lettuce isn't very wet it will make the chips soggy). Add Drained and rinsed beans, chopped tomatoes, the chips, and the cheese.
When the meat is almost done add some seasoning about 1/2 a tablespoon or how ever much you like.
Let the meat cool before adding to salad. Add cooled meat and toss together.
Top with some Thousand island dressing.
