I think these could also be known as Mexican Haystacks. I got it from the cookbook Set For Life: Eat More, Weigh Less, Feel Terrific by Jane P. Merrill and Karen M. Sunderland. It is another great recipe for feeding a crowd and it is quite delicious.
Ingredients: 1 lb. extra-lean ground beef, 1 1 1/4 oz. package of taco seasoning mix (I usually use the lower sodium type), 1/2 c. water, 4 cups cooked kidney, pinto or red beans (2 cans drained), 1 c. raw brown rice, steamed ( I usually use white, and I just cook it normal), 1 17oz. can whole kernel corn drained and heated, 1 head lettuce chopped ( I use green or red leaf torn), 4-6 tomatoes chopped, 1 small can sliced olives drained, 1 c. finely grated cheese, salsa, sour cream, ranch dressing, tortillla chips crushed.
Brown beef and drain. Add taco seasoning, water, and beans. Cook for 15 minutes. Let guests build their own sundae in the following order: steamed rice, meat-bean mixture, corn, lettuce, tomatoes, olives, cheese, salsa, dressing. Add tortilla chips as the topping for the sundae. Yield 10 servings.
*It can be gluten free if the taco seasoning does not have a gluten product in it (i.e. flour). It varies with brands so double check before serving to a person on a gluten free diet.
