How To Make texas style taco soup

  • 1
    Start a 5 quart Crock pot heating on high. While this is warming, brown the beef in a skillet with onions until no longer pink. Drain.
  • 2
    Open all of the vegetables and juices. Add to crock pot along with beef. Be sure to wash pinto beans. You don't have to add the cream style corm, but it makes the juice thicker. Sometimes at Christmas, I add a can of French Cut Green beans to add color to my soup.
  • 3
    Add the ranch dip and taco seasoning. The Taco seasoning is spicy so you can either increase or decrease according to your taste. I don't add salt or pepper as I feel there is enough in the canned vegetables.

    I usually keep the crock pot on high for about 1 hour to blend the flavors, but if you are in a hurry it is ready when hot. I serve this with corn tortillas.
