Pretty darned good recipe . . . I added another can of diced tomatos with no added salt, Rotel with habenero peppers and a can of black beans, drained and rinsed. Very yummy served with baked tortilla chips for scooping. I would rate this a 4.5 actually. Very quick, quite tasty, my only concern would be the amount of sodium likely to be in this recipe due to the seasoning packets and canned beans.

    Perhaps the easiest recipe to put together and walk away for 45 minutes. Couldn't find chili beans, so I added black beans 10 min prior to serving. Did not use ranch mix and was still very, very flavorful. Our new winter soup favorite.

    Great recipe! My husband had two bowels and then ate the leftovers the next day...and he's not even on a diet! A few things I did differently: I added about a tbsp of fresh cilantro, a 1/4 cup of diced green onion, a dollop of sour cream in the dished out bowl, and baked some taco shells, broken, to sprinkle on top of the soup. Great meal!!

    Very very good. I used Boca ground burger instead of meat and added some extra spices for heat. It was excellent. It was especially good as leftovers, when everything kinda soaked in. Yum!
