1 pound lean ground beef (90 percent lean)

Prepare taco salad shells according to package; set aside. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp; remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. In the drippings, cook beef, onions and seasonings over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in beans; heat through, about 5 minutes. Spoon about 1/3 cup meat mixture into each salad shell. Top with 1/2 cup lettuce, another 1/4 cup meat mixture, bacon and toppings of your choice.
