This delicious taco soup has the most amazing broth made up of ranch dressing dry mix, beef broth, and a bit of Tabasco sauce!

During the winter months, I crave soups, chilis, and stews. This past Christmas, my in-laws made taco soup for dinner instead of the traditional holiday menu and I have been craving it again this week.

I finally made a pot on the stovetop last night and it was SO yummy and, of course, easy. (I only do easy, people)

I researched several recipes online and came up with this recipe.  Like any other stew or soup, you can easily add/remove ingredients to your liking and it will be yummy.  The main flavor is in the broth itself. This recipe can be put into a slow cooker or right on the stovetop.  Makes amazing leftovers, too!
