Mexican Bean Soup
For our family's fall birthday bash, I make a big pot of this soup and serve it with plenty of oven-fresh corn bread.

- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 4 cups water
- 3 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 cans (15-1/2 ounces each) hominy, drained
- 2 cans (15 ounces each) Ranch Style beans (pinto beans in seasoned tomato sauce)
- 1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
- 2 envelopes taco seasoning
- 1 envelope (1 ounce) original ranch dressing mix
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Tried.
Ive been making this for a while now and the family LOVES it. The taco seasoning makes it perfect..... great job.
I have already used this recipe many times. However, I halve the ingredients as it makes a lot. This recipe is quick and simple.
The soup was very good. It kind of tasted like the chili we make though. It's good with chips crushed into it; you just have to eat it before the chips get soggy. :)
prett yyummy i didnt add the cayenne because it was already pretty spicy for my little boys to handle. I also used ground turkey and loved the blend of flavors. id call it mexican chili - thats pretty much what it is :)
The whole family loved it. I am making it again but kicking up the spice factor a little bit with hot taco seasoning.
Awesome Recipe, I make this for my Customers at Work everynow and then, they love it and it is requested. We add Black beans, Pinto Beans and Regular corn. I am going to try it with Black olives at Home. Love IT.
I also used corn instead of hominy, red beans instead of kidney beans, and homemade taco seasoning. It was wonderful.
Very tastey. I used low sodium tomatoes, and reduced sodium taco seasoning and the taste was still very good.
This is the best bean soup recipe I have ever had. I use it for filling burritos as well. I have substituted corn for hominy and used different kinds of beans. Still a hit. It is a main staple around here.
