My family is quite fond of this soup as well.... ours is a little
variation:

1 lb hamburger
1 can black beans (rinsed)
1 can stewed tomatoes
1 can Rotel (drained, unless you just love it spicy)
1 can corn (drained)
1 pkg taco seasoning
1/2 c ranch dressing
2 c water

Brown hamburger. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook over medium
heat for at least 30 minutes, but preferably 2 hours. Serve with
shredded cheese, sour cream, and tortilla chips.

*Crock Pot Version*
After browning the hamburger, toss everything into the crockpot and
cook on low for 4-5 hours.


Great comfort food for my family....
