I promise as you read this recipe, you will think I've gone crazy. Lima beans and hominy in taco soup? I know. It sounds weird. But it tastes, oh so good. This was so yummy on a cool evening. And super easy to fix. Trust me. Make this soon!
1 lb. lean ground beef
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 (4 oz.) can of diced green chiles
1 tsp. pepper
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 package ranch dressing mix
1 can of pinto beans, drained
1 can of kidney beans, drained
1 can white hominy, drained
1 can lima beans, drained
1 can petite cut diced tomatoes
1-2 cups of water
In a large Dutch oven, brown the beef and chopped onion over medium heat. Drain off any fat. Add chilies, pepper, all the beans, seasoning mixes, hominy, and tomatoes to the beef and onion. Stir in up to 2 cups of water, depending upon desired consistency. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Top with shredded cheese, and serve with chips.
