Equipment:

6-qt Slow Cooker

Ingredients:

2 lb stew meat
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
½ tsp ground pepper
2 Tbsp canola oil
1 (11-oz) can corn, drained
1 (15-oz) can black beans, drained
1 (15-oz) can pinto beans, drained
1 (10-oz) can diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
1 (1-oz) package Ranch dressing mix
1 (1-oz) package taco seasoning
2½ cups beef broth
2 (10-oz) cans red enchilada sauce
tortilla chips and cheese for topping

Instructions:

Combine roast, flour, salt, and pepper in a large ziplock bag. Seal and shake to coat beef.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove beef from the ziplock bag, discard any excess flour mixture. Sauté beef until browned, about 5 minutes.
Place meat into the slow cooker. Add corn, black beans, pinto beans, diced tomatoes and green chiles, Ranch mix, taco seasoning, beef broth, and enchilada sauce.
Cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours, or until beef is tender.

Notes:

You can brown the meat the night before and refrigerate it overnight.
You can also brown the meat and dump everything in the slow cooker insert and refrigerate the insert overnight. Just pop the insert in the slow cooker in the morning and dinner is done.
Do not make the ranch dressing. You are only going to use the seasoning mix.

Is Slow Cooker Steak Enchilada Soup spicy? This soup does have a little bit of heat from the Rotel tomatoes and enchilada sauce. It isn't spicy, it just has a small kick. If you are worried about the heat, make sure to buy mild enchilada sauce and mild Rotel tomatoes.
Can I Freeze Slow Cooker Steak Enchilada Soup? Yes! Divide the leftover soup into individual containers or freezer bags and freeze for a quick meal later. To reheat, thaw and reheat on the stovetop, in the microwave or in the slow cooker.
To make a freezer meal, brown the meat and place in a ziplock bag. Put all the other ingredients in the bag and freeze. When ready to cook, put the contents of the freezer bag in the slow cooker. There is no need to thaw the bag before adding it to the crockpot.
