- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cans Rotel
- 3 cups cooked beans of your choice, (2 cans)
- 1 can corn (optional)
- 1 pkg. taco seasoning (2-3 T. bulk)
- 1 pkg. ranch dressing mix (optional)
- 8 oz tomato sauce
- 1 chopped onion
- 2 cups water
Brown beef in skillet w/ onion. Drain fat and add to crockpot. Add all other ingredients (do not drain cans), and stir to mix. Cover and cook on low 8 hours or HIGH 4. I usually add more water and a little more bulk taco seasoning powder to make it more soupy.
We LOVE this on fall days!

Keep putting that crockpot to good use. How about giving this red hots apple sauce recipe a try next.

Anyone tried it without the ranch? I think I may.. Will let you know how it goes.
I make this without the ranch, it’s awesome. I love it
What is Rotel?
Rotel is a brand name for a diced tomato-green chili mixture. You find them in the canned tomato aisle. You can also use canned tomatoes and a small can of diced green chilis (not hot chilis – these will say green chilis) if you can’t find Rotel brand.
I’ve made this many times before and it’s soooo goood. It’s not hard to make, makes a ton (you can eat this for days, and it’s really good as leftovers!) and you can do so much with it- serve it over rice, roll it up in a burrito with some cheese, it’s really tasty
I should also note that it doesn’t get very soupy it’s more like chili.
