-2 (4 1/2-ounce) cans diced green chiles
-1 (4.6-ounce) can black olives, drained and sliced

-Corn chips, for serving
-Sour cream, for garnish
-Grated cheese, for garnish

Directions:

1. Brown the ground beef and onions in a large skillet; drain the excess fat, then transfer the browned beef and onions to a large slow cooker or a stockpot.

2. Add the beans, corn, tomatoes, green chiles, black olives, green olives, taco seasoning, and ranch dressing mix, and cook in a slow cooker on low for 6 to 8 hours or simmer over low heat for about 1 hour in a pot on the stove.

3. To serve, place a few corn chips in each bowl and ladle soup over them. Top with sour cream, cheese, green onions and jalapenos.
