I’m a vegetarian and I use veggie grounds, a ranch packet and drain and rinse all the beans and use veggie broth!

Try putting the can opener on top just like you would the side. Faster and easier. And no cuts.

I am also add a can of broth and a can of either cream of chicken or cream of mushroom depending on if I use canned chicken or ground beef

I use ground turkey and I add a ranch dressing packet and I add a liquid (water or broth or mix of both) I make mine in the crock pot 👍. It’s so easy to make for a crowd too!

This is very similar to our family's "Taco Soup", but we do it in crock pot. One thing that I've found over the years that is such a money saver (I live alone so it's really easy to talk myself out of cooking because I think... Oh I don't want to make all of that just for me!) Anyway, the life saver is after I grocery shop... whatever the first meal I make with ground beef, or if it's earlier enough in the day when I finish getting groceries I will brown a few pounds and divide it up into ziplock bags. This way, I take all my ingredients dump them in the crock pot in the morning and cook it on low all day and it's delicious. If I'm not making it for my family (Because I think within walking distance of my Aunt & Uncle, my Papa, and my Mom) then once dinner is finished I will put the rest of the soup in freezer bags and pop it in the freezer, and leave 1 serving in a Tupperware container so I will have it as left overs but This way I have a couple of meals waiting in the freezer when I don't feel up to cooking, or just don't have time.

A suggestion from an old Mama, if that’s a non stick pot it’s deteriorating & that’s not healthy for your family to eat from. Invest in a new large pot I understand you are thrifty & pride yourself on using up all your household goods but it’s time to put a new pot on your monthly to buy list.

I spy a CTR ring! Nice!! Good recipes too! Thanks, Brittney.

I make this for my family all the time, they love it!!! I usually add onions when I brown the hamburger and sometimes add in a block of cream cheese or heavy whipping cream for a creamy version but we love it anyway I make it.

[Cakeycandy]

I add a packet of ranch dressing mix in mine. Also this is an easy dish to make vegetarian, cheaper without the meat & if you up the amount of beans you won't miss the beef.

I just came back to this video for the second time because I'm going to the grocery store and I wanted to make this. It's 108 where I live and spending too much time in the kitchen is not on my list of priorities LOL

[ashleycoiner]

My family we add shredded chicken to the taco soup. So delicious.

[latoyabenjamin]

Awesome! More, more, more! Thanks for sharing!🙂

[emilydecker]

Hey! Where'd you get that sour cream? I thought that brand was Aldi-exclusive and thought you didn't have an Aldi near you!

[audrahcoleman]

There’s no way this meal is five dollars because the ground beef alone could be five dollars

I am so sorry BUT I need to know. I watched last week's Costco shopping and your hair was short and NOW on this video 13th August your hair is long. Not sure what is happening DO you have hair extentions? Has anyone else notice the different in Brittany's hair length last week it was short and this week it is long? Ashwina
