INSTRUCTIONS

 

• In a large pot over medium-high heat. Brown ground beef until it is no longer pink. I like to drain excess fat after the ground beef is cooked. Place cooked cooked beef on a paper towel lined plate. This will help absorb any additional fat.
  
• In a large pot add drained black beans, drained kidney beans, diced tomatoes, and drained corn. Stir to mix well.
  
• Add in salsa, water, taco seasoning, dry ranch seasoning, and stir well.Heat to a boil and reduce heat to med low. 
  
• Add cooked hamburger back into the pot and stir to combine. Simmer on low for 15-20 minutes.
  
• Serve warm and add your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
