Okay, this has been driving me nuts since an earlier post regarding
RFC suggestions for improvement. This is absolutely not to say that
the original recipe isn't good. This is how I would make it:

Change the turkey to beef (personal preference)
Skip the taco seasoning and ranch dressing
Drain the beans and corn
Use spicy V-8 juice for the liquid
Add chili powder to taste

I very much appreciate the basis for this soup. As I stated earlier,
I'm prone to very low-energy days. I'm sure a lot of fibromyalgia
sufferers, etc. have the same issue. This soup will improved people's
lives. Really. Sometimes, I just eat graham crackers because I'm too
tired to cook. This gives me a tasty, nutritious alternative to
crackers.

Thank you Lynne,
Carol
