Equipment

Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef, at least 90% lean
1 cup chopped onion (1 medium-size onion)
1 can (14 to 15 ounces) Mexican-style diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (10 ounces) tomatoes with chiles, undrained
2 cans (14 to 15 ounces each) beans (kidney, pinto, black or chili), rinsed and drained
1 can (11 to 15 ounces) corn, undrained
2 cups water
1 package (1.25 ounces) reduced-sodium taco seasoning
1 package (1 ounce) ranch dressing mix

Optional garnishes:

chopped avocado
light sour cream or nonfat plain Greek yogurt
reduced fat shredded cheese
pico de gallo or salsa
fresh cilantro
tortilla chips

Instructions

Ideal slow cooker size: 4-Quart.
Spray a skillet with cooking spray and place it over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef and break it up with a wooden spoon, stirring for about 1 minute. Stir in the onion and continue to cook, stirring often, until the ground beef is brown all over and the onion is soft, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Drain the excess fat.
Transfer the browned beef and onions to the slow cooker (or a soup pot).
Add the tomatoes, beans, corn, water, taco seasoning, and ranch dressing mix.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours (or simmer over low heat on the stove for 30 minutes to 1 hour.)
Serve with optional garnishes as desired.

6 PointsPlus (Old plan)

There are lots of variations for this easy Weight Watchers taco soup. I rarely make it exactly the same way twice. You can substitute 99% lean ground turkey for the beef. And use whatever variety of beans (pinto, black, kidney) and/or tomatoes (diced, stewed, sauce) you have on hand.
