Making a little Taco Soup for dinner!

It's freezing where I live. It might even snow tonight.  I am super busy working on Christmas cards, making treat bags and teacher gifts for the last day of school before Christmas break. I needed an easy meal idea for tonight, so here's what we're having...

Taco Soup
1 lb. ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 can corn, undrained
1 can black beans, undrained
1 can pinto or kidney beans, undrained
2 cans chopped tomatoes with chilies
1 (15oz.) can tomato sauce
1 pkg. taco seasoning
1/2 - 1 pkg. Hidden Valley dry ranch dressing mix.

Brown ground beef and onion, drain
Combine all ingredients, simmer 3-4 hours. Add salt, pepper and chili powder to taste.
Serve with a garnish of sour cream, sliced avocado and shredded cheese.
