Recipe Ingredients

Ingredients for 7 can soup on a table with text overlay.

No Bean Chili – This chili will give the soup a perfect amount of already cooked lean ground beef and chili flavor.
Whole Kernel Corn – Add a bit of color and extra texture to the soup recipe.
Cheddar Cheese Soup – Creates a cheesy taste to the soup base.
Ranch Style Beans – Similar to baked beans minus the sweetness. Instead, these beans (and their juice) have chili powder, onion, cumin, and a few other flavors.
Veg All – These mixed vegetables that have green beans, potatoes, corn, peas and carrots, provide more wholeness and thickness to the overall soup.
Diced Tomatoes – Tomatoes that have already been diced to a fork-friendly size. You can also use petite diced tomatoes.
Rotel – More diced tomatoes, except with the addition of green chiles, both which add a nice flavor.

Dress up the soup with shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, diced jalapenos, and/or avocado slices.
