- 1 pound ground sirloin
- 2 -- (10-ounce) cans diced tomatoes and green chiles with juice
- 2 -- (11-ounce) cans whole kernel corn with juice
- 1 -- (15-ounce) can pinto beans with juice
- 1 -- (15-ounce) can kidney beans with juice
- 1 -- (4 1/2-ounce) can chopped green chiles, undrained
- 1 -- (1-ounce) package original ranch salad dressing mix
- 1 -- (1 1/4-ounce) package taco seasoning mix
Instructions
- In a large pot, over a medium-high heat, cook the ground sirloin until done, about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any excess grease. Add the tomatoes and green chiles, corn, pinto beans, kidney beans, green chiles, ranch dressing mix, and taco seasoning mix.
