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