There's a great thred here on the cooking board! We love the Chicken and Dumplings!
We love this soup at my house! I don't eat mine with the corn chips, but DH & DS say it tastes great with them.
Paula Deen's Taco Soup
2 lbs. ground beef
2 cups diced onions
2 (15-1/2 oz) cans pinto beans
1 (15-1/2 oz) can red kidney beans
1 (15-1/2 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (14-1/2 oz) can Mexican-style stewed tomatoes
1 (14-1/2 oz) can diced tomatoes
1 (14-1/2 oz) can tomatoes and green chilies
2 (4-1/2 oz) cans diced green chiles
1 (4-5/8 oz) can black olives, drained and sliced
1 (1-1/4 oz) package taco seasoning mix
1 (1 oz) package ranch dressing mix
Corn chips, for serving
Sour cream, grated cheese, chopped green onions, sliced jalapeno - for garnish
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.
Add the beans, corn, and tomatoes (mash stewed tomatoes if the chunks are too large), green chilies, black olives, taco seasoning, and ranch dressing mix.
Cook 6 - 8 hours on LOW in crockpot. To serve, place a few corn chips in each bowl and ladle soup over them. Top with sour cream, cheese, green onions, and jalapenos.
I love the Crockpot 365 blog that a previous poster mentioned. I have also gotten lots of recipes from this website http://www.sangotn.com/cookbook/crockpot/index-5b.html
Frozen chicken breasts cook nicely in the crockpot, and I have made some wonderful beef stews, too.
We do this one too, but we sub frozen chicken breasts for the ground beef -- bonus is, you don't have to cook anything!
