Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 6 slices cooked bacon
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp taco seasoning
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 ½ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 ½ cups frozen corn
  • 30 ounces canned red kidney beans (2 15 oz cans)
  • 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup
  • 15 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • If you don't have precooked bacon strips, cook your bacon until crispy and break it into small pieces.
  • In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over high or medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  • Peel the potatoes and slice them about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Spray a 6 quart crockpot with cooking spray. Layer the cooked ground beef, sliced potatoes, diced onion, bacon, seasonings, corn, beans, condensed soup, and tomatoes. Gently stir together.
  • Cook on LOW heat for 7-8 hours, or HIGH heat for 3-4 hours. When the potatoes are tender, it's done.
  • Sprinkle the cheese over the top. Add the lid and cook for about 10 minutes or until the cheese melts.

Notes

  • Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of the potatoes. Thinner slices will cook faster.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
