Taco Soup


After a few days of some of the family not quite feeling up to snuff, this soup just sounded tasty. This one goes together pretty fast and can be made with beef, chicken, soy, or no "meat" at all. We are having ours with sweet cornbread. This is What's Cookin on Beaty's Creek today.

Needed:

3 pounds hamburger, turkey, chicken or soy-browned
2 cans Rotel
2 cans whole kernel corn
2 cans black beans-drained and rinsed
1 can hominy
1 can red beans-drained and rinsed
1 can tomato sauce
1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet ranch dressing mix
1 t garlic powder




Brown meat of choice and then add, Rotel, corn, black beans, red beans, hominy, tomato sauce, taco seasoning and ranch dressing mix. I add about 3 cups of water to this, salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat for 1 hour. Serve with shredded cheese and sweet cornbread.
