When my sister for told me about Taco Soup, I thought "Yuk"......BUT it is TOO GOOD!!!!! Don't let the name run you away.

I make it, but don't have a recipe. It is pretty simple. In a large pot brown 1 lb hamburger meat and diced onion if onion is desired. After meat is browned, drain. Add back to pot and add one pack of Hidden Valley dry Ranch Dressing mix and one pack of taco seasong mix. Add one can diced tomatoes with green chiles (I use the hottest,) one can undrained corn, one can kidney beans rinsed. You can also add a can of rinsed black beans if you like. If this is not soupy enough for you or not enough tomato, add a can of regular diced tomatoes undrained. You can also add water if you want it more soupy. Heat until low boil and then simmer 10 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips, taco cheese blend, salsa and sour cream.

I would like to have a recipe for taco soup.
