Ingredients

2 lbs ground beef
1 onion, browned and drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans (or great nothern)
1 (16 ounce) can chili beans
2 (10 ounce) cans Rotel Tomatoes (hot or mild)
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 (15 1/4 ounce) cans white shoepeg corn
1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch dressing mix
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
2 -3 cups chicken broth (I always use chicken broth) or 2 -3 cups beef broth (I always use chicken broth)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
cayenne

Method

Cook the ground beef with the chopped onion until browned, then drain the fat.
Transfer the beef and onion mixture into a 7 quart Crock Pot and combine with all the remaining ingredients.
Set the Crock Pot to low and allow the soup to cook for 6-8 hours.
Remember to add the entire contents of each can without draining any liquid.
Offer tortilla chips and shredded cheese alongside the finished soup.
Additional garnishes can be provided for individual bowls.
Suggested toppings include sour cream, avocado slices, black olives, fresh cilantro, and jalapeno slices.
Note: You may use cubed raw chicken instead of beef, or stir in pre-cooked shredded chicken just before serving. For a quicker method, combine everything in a large pan, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 min, stirring now and then.
