Mexican Mud

 2 pounds ground beef
1 large onion
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
3 (16 ounce each) cans refried beans
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
2 pounds Velveeta cheese

Brown ground beef with the onion and taco seasoning.  Put meat in a slow cooker and add the rest of the ingredients .  (I stirred it up a little bit.  I recently tried to 1/2 the recipe in a 2 quart slow cooker.  It filled it quite full.  So, I'd plan for using a 5 quart slow cooker with the full recipe.)  Cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring every once in a while to mix everything together and distribute cheese as it is melting and to prevent burning.
