Taco Soup

Apparently I had been under a rock most of my life, because I did not have taco soup until our sweet friends the Sachitanos introduced me to it. From what I am told this is a fairly common dish like, say, spaghetti...well, somehow I missed it for 20+ years, but it has now changed my life. Soooo, just in case there are any other people out there who have also been missing out on this easy, delicious, slow cooking wonder--here's the recipe, Sachitano style (well, sort of--I use a pound less meat):

TACO SOUP INGREDIENTS

2 cans diced tomatoes and green chiles (aka Rotel)
1 can diced tomatoes
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can corn, drained and rinsed
1 can chili beans
1 can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 packet Ranch dressing mix
2 packets taco seasoning
1 pound ground beef, browned and drained
chips, cheese, and sour cream to garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

(1) Brown your meat and drain it.
(2) Dump everything in your slow cooker and stir.
(3) Turn it on high for about 3 hours.
(4) Go find something to do while your dinner cooks itself. I love my slow cooker.

  1. Woo hoo! I've been looking for a Taco Soup recipe...my friend gave me one, but I lost it. This recipe looks the same, from what I can remember. All of these recipes sound delicious :)
