Taco Soup

Some time in the last 2 or 3 weeks when my brain was going in many directions at once I saw a recipe for Taco Soup and promptly forgot to save it or print it or make a mental note of where to find it. And, of course, could not find it again.

So I did what all resourceful women do - I combined 2 recipes and winged it! Here is what I ended up with and it was delicious!

Taco Soup

1.5-2 lb. ground beef or ground turkey
1 onion minced
2 can pinto beans (4 cups cooked)
2 can black beans (4 cups cooked)
1 can Rotel tomatoes (I used Kroger Tomatoes with Green Chilies, the can is 14.5 oz)
1 can diced tomatoes
1-2 pkg. taco seasoning (1/4 - 1/2 cup)
2 - 4 cups water (whatever you need to get the soup consistency you like, I just rinsed my tomato cans into the pot)

Brown ground beef with minced onion. Drain. Toss everything together into the CrockPot. Turn to low and forget about it until supper time - in my case 8 hours later, but it would have been done before then.

I served it with shredded cheese, tortilla chips and sour cream.

It was delicious and enough for 1 meal for us and 2 meals in the freezer.
