Lazy Day Hamburger Soup Recipes

Steps:

• 1. 2 lb. of ground meat - thawed, cook in a skillet until browned. Leave the meat in bite size chunks while browning.

You can use different combinations of ground meat or all of the same kind, just as long as its 2 lb. e.g.-ground deer, lamb, sirloin, angus, and turkey. Turn on slow cooker to high- don't have a slow cooker get your big pot out.
• 2. Ranch dressing, taco seasoning- add to the cooked meat with a little bit of water. Stir and place lid on and cook for about 10 mins. ( I just fill the empty seasoning pk up with water..roughly 1/2 -3/4 cups of water so the meat doesn't dry out)

Red kidney beans- drained and rinsed Pinto beans- or you can sub for a can of chili beans Whole kernel corn- I like to only use 1/2 of a 15 oz can but your welcome to use the whole can with the liquid.
