Slow Cooker Taco Soup

I love, love, love this recipe.  It's quick to throw into your slow cooker and simply delicious.  It definitely has a kick to it, which makes me love it even more.  If you do not want the heat, then use simple diced tomatoes instead of the ones with jalapenos and cut down the chili powder to just 1 tsp instead of 2.  Or you could leave it as is and top with with shredded cheese and sour cream to take down the heat.  However you prefer it, try this soup.  It is delicious and on the healthy side.  Enjoy!
