Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef and onions in a large skillet; drain off excess fat and transfer browned beef and onions to a large slow cooker or stockpot.
  2. Add the beans, corn, tomatoes (I like to mash all of the tomato products before I put them in the stockpot--sometimes there are very large chunks of tomatoes, especially in the stewed tomatoes), green chilies, black olives, green olives, taco seasoning and ranch dressing mix.
  3. Simmer over low heat for about 1 hour (or 6-8 hours on low setting in crock pot).
  4. To serve, place a few corn chips in each bowl and ladle soup over them.
  5. Top with sour cream, cheese, green onions and jalapeños.
