Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium, diced Onion
• 15 ounces Diced tomatoes
• 8 ounces Tomato sauce
• 15 ounces Corn kernels
• 15 ounces Black beans
• 15 ounces Kidney beans
• 1 packet Taco seasoning
• 1 packet Ranch dressing mix
• 2 cups Water
• 1 cup (optional, for topping) Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup (optional, for topping) Sour cream
• 2 cups (optional, for serving) Tortilla chips

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat and transfer the cooked beef to a large soup pot or slow cooker.

Step 2

In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Add the onions to the soup pot or slow cooker.

Step 3

Drain and rinse the black beans and kidney beans, and add them to the pot along with the undrained diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and undrained corn.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning packet, ranch dressing mix, and 2 cups of water. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

Step 5

If using a stovetop, bring the soup to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes. If using a slow cooker, set it to low and cook for 4-6 hours.

Step 6

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add additional water if you prefer a thinner soup consistency.

Step 7

Serve the soup hot in bowls. Optionally, top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a handful of crushed tortilla chips.

Step 8

To freeze for Once-A-Month Cooking (OAMC), let the soup cool completely after cooking. Divide it into freezer-safe containers or freezer bags, label with the name and date, and store in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat on the stovetop until hot.
